Motion Text

leave out from 'months' to end and add 'further notes that UK exports to the Eurozone have increased 26.4 per cent. since the launch of the euro, French exports to the Eurozone by 22.9 per cent. and Italian exports 20.1 per cent. with the Eurozone average being a growth of 22.8 per cent., these figures coming from Eurostat itself; and therefore notes that Britain in the EU, but outside the euro, has succeeded in growing its exports at a faster rate than the Eurozone average.
