asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how much UHT milk is currently consumed in Scotland; and how much of this consumption consists of milk produced in (a) Britain, (b) the European Economic Community and (c) the rest of the world.

The information requested is not available in the form requested. An estimated 6 million litres of UHT milk were sold in Scotland in the year ended 31 March 1984. Approximately 99 per cent. of total UHT milk sold in Great Britain in 1984 was produced in Great Britain with the balance being accounted for by imports from the European Economic Community.
