§ Mr. RowlandsTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will list the occasions and the circumstances of all European Commission bans upon the export of a product by an individual member state; and if he will indicate how many of these occasions were against the wishes of the member state. [24578]
§ Mr. David DavisThe information requested is not held centrally. There are a number of bans on the export of certain products from certain member states. Examples are the current ban on live cattle and certain products derived from cattle in the UK, and a ban on pigs for slaughter from certain parts of Germany affected by classical swine fever.
