Mr. Hain: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what are the latest available figures for the added value per worker for (a) United Kingdom, (b) France, (c) Germany, (d) the European Union and (e) Japan. [13444] Mrs. Angela Knight: The information requested falls within the responsibility of the chief executive of the Office for National Statistics. I have asked him to arrange for a reply to be given. Letter from Tim Holt to Mr. Peter Hain, dated 4 February 1997: The Chancellor of the Exchequer has asked me to reply as the Director of the Office for National Statistics to your recent question on the added value per worker. The figures requested are not available for the whole of the United Kingdom economy. This is because all the component variables necessary to produce gross value added per head data, is not collected by all of the relevant inquiries. Therefore, only partial data is available for the United Kingdom. The following 1994 data represents those sectors where the data can be calculated, and is the latest year available. _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Gross added value per head, £ Mining and quarrying 30,819 Manufacturing 28,969 Electricity, gas and water supply 79,511 Services 22,154 Catering n/a Retail n/a Wholesaling and dealing n/a Motor trades n/a Property n/a _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Gross value added per head data for France, Germany, Japan and European Union are not available due to disproportionate cost.

Mr. David Nicholson: To ask the President of the Board of Trade what is the total production of coal in the United Kingdom from (a) deep mines (b) opencast mining for each quarter since the first quarter of 1992; and what forecasts relating to production his Department has evaluated. [877] Mr. Page: The information requested is given as follows: UK coal production: deep-mined Thousand tonnes _________________________________________________________________________________________________. 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 Quarter 1 18,404 15,515 8,870 8,397 9,006 Quarter 2 16,484 11,852 7,734 8,637 8,721 Quarter 3 15,129 11,527 7,290 8,674 -- Quarter 4 15,783 11,563 7,960 9,442 -- Total 65,800 50,457 31,854 35,150 -- _________________________________________________________________________________________________.

Source: Energy Trends. The Department of Trade and Industry does not make forecasts of coal production. However, Energy Paper 65, "Energy Projections for the UK" which was published by my Department in March 1995, suggested that by the year 2000 solid fuel demand would be around half its 1990 level. Although the report did not split this demand between imports and domestic production, most of the demand is expected to be met by domestic production.
