To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list for each of the last 10 years in real terms (a) the value of exports from Scotland to and (b) the value of imports to Scotland from (i) other United Kingdom countries, (ii) the European Union, (iii) the United States of America and (iv) the rest of the world. [76081]
[holding answer 11 March 1999]: The Government do not maintain separate export or import figures for Scotland, as it is an integral part of the United Kingdom and we do not consider business between any part of the UK to be exports or imports. The following Scottish manufactured export figures are based on data, funded by Scottish Trade International and maintained by the Scottish Council Development and Industry.
