HL Deb 19 July 1994 vol 557 c27WA
Lord Stoddart of Swindon

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will list the specific savings to United Kingdom taxpayers, including in the cost of food, if the United Kingdom were to leave the European Community and enjoyed the same status in relation to the European Union as Switzerland has, and as Norway, Sweden and Austria had before their accession to the Treaty of European Union.

Lord Henley

No. It would not be possible successfully to establish the overall costs and savings of leaving the European Union in this manner.
