§ Mr. Nicholas Wintertonasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what information he has concerning the share of the total world market which has been held by the United Kingdom aerospace industry in each of the last 10 years for which figures are available.
§ Mr. Pattie[pursuant to his reply, 16 January 1986, c. 632]: Information on the share of the total aerospace market, as distinct from the share of total aerospace exports, is not readily available. The United Kingdom industry's share of exports of aircraft and associated equipment by the non-communist world for 1975–1984 has been as follows:
19W
Year United Kingdom share of world exports percentage 1975 9 1976 8 1977 9 1978 10 1979 9 1980 12 1981 10
Year United Kingdom share of world exports percentage 1982 11 1983 12 1984 11
§ Mr. Nicholas Wintertonasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what information he has concerning the share of the total European aerospace market which has been held by the United Kingdom aerospace industry in each of the last five years for which figures are available.
§ Mr. Pattie[pursuant to his reply, 16 January 1986, c. 632]: Because many countries do not provide a complete breakdown of trade by region for aerospace goods, it is not possible to estimate reliably the United Kingdom industry's share of the aerospace exports of noncommunist countries to western Europe.
