Volume 468: debated on Wednesday 28 November 2007

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice what percentage of (a) beef, (b) lamb, (c) pork and (d) dairy products used in his departmental headquarters were imported products in the most recent period for which figures are available. (166649)

I refer the hon. Member to the report published by the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) on 8 November 2007 that gives the proportion of UK produce supplied to Government Departments, NHS and HM Prison Service.

Copies of the report are available on the DEFRA website at:

and have been deposited in the House of Commons library.
