Mr. Cryer
asked the Secretary of State for Trade what is the balance of trade between the United Kingdom and the EEC countries for 1979 and January and February of the current year.
Mr. Parkinson
The information is not available monthly on a balance of payments basis. On an overseas trade statistics basis, the balance of trade, seasonally adjusted, between the United Kingdom and the European' Community for the periods in question can be derived from tables 11 and 15 of the Department of Trade press notice "The current account of the United Kingdom balance of payments" issued on 17 March and available in the House of Commons Library.
