§ Mr. Austin MitchellTo ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will publish a table showing the import penetration and export performance ratios for the electrical and electronic engineering industry as a group in 1968, 1973, 1977, 1985 and 1989 together with the import/export ratios by value and volume for the European Economic Community and for the rest of the world based on 1973 =100.
§ Mr. Sainsbury[holding answer 15 October 1990]: The available information is in the table. The figures in the table are based on the NACE (1970) class 34. No information is available for years before 1975 for the European Community.
In 1987, the equivalent ratios for import penetration, export performance and import/export for the current membership of the EC were 16.4 per cent., 16.5 per cent. and 105.4 per cent. respectively.
No information is available for "the rest of the world". The figures in the table are based on current price data. There are no constant price data available.
