§ Mr. Denzil DaviesTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how much the reunification of Germany has cost the EC budget.
§ Mr. Garel-JonesThe gross additional cost on the EC budget during 1991 as a result of German unification will be about 1,915 mecu. That will be partly offset by higher German contributions which will total 1,230 mecu, making the net additional cost some 685 mecu.
