§ Mr. Teddy TaylorTo ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what was the value of clinical thermometers exported from the United Kingdom to the European Economic Community and from the European Economic Community to the United Kingdom in the most recent annual period for which figures are available.
§ Mr. Alan ClarkFor the period April 1987 to March 1988 trade with the EEC in clinical thermometers was valued at: exports £54,000 and imports £105,000. These figures should be treated with caution because of major changes to Customs procedures introduced in January 1988, details of which were given in a reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Hertfordshire, South-West (Mr. Page) on 7 December 1987, at columns 34–35.
