Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what are the EU's main exports to the UK, including both goods and services.

This information is given in tables 1 and 2 below. The exports of services figures in Table 1 are sourced from the Office for National Statistics’ Pink Book 2015 release and are on a ‘Balance of Payments’ basis. Figures for exports of goods on the same basis are only available at a broad level of commodity aggregation (1 digit SITC level). Goods data at the level of detail required to answer this PQ are available from HM Revenue and Customs Overseas Trade Statistics database (Table 2) which is attached. These data are on a different (‘merchandise’) basis, hence not strictly comparable with the ONS data. Moreover, data for 2015 are not available for services.
