<p>The information requested falls within the responsibility of the UK Statistics
Authority. I have asked the Authority to reply.</p><p>Dear Lord Hoyle,</p><p> </p><p>As
National Statistician and Chief Executive of the UK Statistics Authority, I am replying
to your Parliamentary Question asking what is the trade balance of the UK with the
EU, broken down by each of the 27 other EU Member States <strong>(HL14453)</strong>.</p><p>
</p><p>Table 1 below provides the total (goods and services) trade balance, total
exports and total imports by EU aggregate and member state in 2017. These data are
our latest full year estimates of total trade published 23 January 2018<sup><sup>[1]</sup></sup>
and are consistent with the wider balance of payments. You can find more recent estimates
of trade within the same release, although to note, these figures are quarterly estimates
up to and including quarter three (July to September) 2018 and are not seasonally
adjusted.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Yours sincerely,</p><p><strong>John Pullinger
