Asked by: Paul Monaghan (Scottish National Party - Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross)
Question to the Department for International Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what proportion of products and produce exported from Scotland to the rest of the UK are passported for consumption in nations that are members of the EU.
Answered by Mark Garnier
The Department for International Trade does not hold such data. The Scottish Government (Export Statistics Scotland 2014) provides estimates of Scottish exports to the rest of the UK but it does not contain information on whether these products and produce are ultimately destined for other EU members.
