To ask Her Majesty’s Government what was the total amount of the rebate on the United Kingdom's contribution to the European Union budget from the commencement of that rebate until the year in which the United Kingdom Government agreed its reduction; and what was the total amount of the rebate from that year to date.

The value of the UK rebate included in EU Budgets over the period 1985 to 2007 was £54 billion. The value of the rebate over the period 2008 to 2013 was £23 billion.
