<p>HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) are responsible for the collection and publication
of data on UK imports and exports of goods to and from the UK. HMRC release this information
monthly as a National Statistic: the Overseas Trade in Goods Statistics.</p><p><strong>
</strong></p><p>The trade data collected does not enable HMRC to distinguish exports
of rubber bullets from other ammunition and projectiles. The trade data collected
also does not enable HMRC to distinguish exports of tear gas from other spring, air
or gas guns and pistols or truncheons, or riot shields from other plastic articles.</p><p>
</p><p>However, there is aggregated trade data available for the goods and periods
requested on the uktradeinfo website, under ‘Build your own data tables’. The site
also contains a ‘Help’ function for information on how to extract trade data.</p><p>
</p><p>Trade data relating to the value of all ammunition and projectiles can be searched
for using commodity code 9306909000. Trade data relating to all spring, air and gas
guns and pistols and truncheons can be found using commodity code 9304000000. Trade
data relating to riot shields and other plastic articles can be found using commodity
code 3926909790.</p>
