<p>Countries covered by Open General licences are reviewed in circumstances where
the assessment of the licensing position under the Consolidated EU and National Arms
Export Licensing Criteria changes. Where we assess that the inclusion of a country
on an Open General licence would no longer be consistent with the Consolidated EU
and National Arms Export Licensing Criteria, we would remove it. In the case of the
Saudi-led coalition, the licensing position is kept under careful and continual review.</p><p>
</p><p>Our export licensing system allows us to quickly respond to changing facts
on the ground and we have powers to revoke, suspend or amend licences if our assessment
of the licensing position changes.</p>
