<p>We do not hold data on actual arms sales, only on export licences that have been
granted, which are available at: <a href="https://www.exportcontroldb.gov.uk/sdb/fox/sdb/SDBHOME"

</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>All export licence applications are rigorously assessed on
a case-by-case basis against the Consolidated EU and National Arms Export Licensing
Criteria, taking into account all prevailing circumstances at the time of application.</p><p>
</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Foreign Office posts overseas have a standing requirement to
keep an eye on developments in human rights in their respective countries and to report
back if there are any concerns that might affect licensing policy.</p><p> </p><p>
