§ Mr. Chris SmithTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will publish the gross domestic product of(a) the United Kingdom and (b) Greater London in (i) cash and (ii) real terms in each year from 1980–81 to 1991–92, estimated.
§ Mr. MellorCurrent price figures for Greater London up to 1989 are published in "Economic Trends" No. 457, November 1991 page 96. These include the income from employment of non-residents who work in Greater London. Alternative estimates given on page 92 exclude the income of non-residents. These do not measure the whole of the economic activity taking place in Greater London, but annual estimates are available up to 1990. Both pages include comparable figures for the United Kingdom. Only calendar year estimates are made.
Constant price estimates of regional GDP are not made because there are no regional deflators. Comparable constant prices figures for the United Kingdom are given in table 1.3 of the Central Statistical Office Blue Book, 1991 edition, "United Kingdom National Accounts".
