The Government takes its export control responsibilities extremely seriously.<\/p>

<\/p>

The UK operates one of the most thorough and<\/del> robust export control regimes<\/ins> systems<\/del> in the world. The Government will not grant export licences where to do so would be inconsistent with the Consolidated EU and National Arms Exports Licensing Criteria, which include the respect for<\/ins> an assessment of<\/del> human rights and fundamental freedoms in the country of final destination. The Government will not grant a licence where there is a clear risk that the items to exported might be used for internal repression.<\/ins><\/p>

Extant licenses<\/del> licences<\/ins> can be revoked at any time if the situation changes in Cameroon and those licences are no longer assessed as being consistent with the licensing criteria<\/ins>.<\/p>


The policy remains as announced to parliament in a Written Ministerial Statement on 25 March 2014: https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201314/cmhansrd/cm140325/wmstext/140325m0001.htm#140325660000<\/a><\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1482", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Graham Stuart"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Beverley and Holderness"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Graham Stuart"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-11-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "true", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "previousAnswerVersion" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1010636/answer/previousversion/86882", "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1482", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Graham Stuart"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Beverley and Holderness"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Graham Stuart"} } , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-11-23T14:58:43.387Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ], "questionFirstMinisteriallyCorrected" : [{"_value" : "2018-11-26T11:00:41.847Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "202"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "International Trade"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "International Trade"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-11-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Arms Trade: Cameroon"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, whether his Department plans to review arms sales to the Government of Cameroon.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4657", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Anneliese Dodds"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Oxford East"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Anneliese Dodds"} ], "uin" : "193544"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/992659", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for International Trade"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/992659/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Criterion 2c of the Government\u2019s export licensing Criteria states that the Government will not grant a licence if there is a clear risk that the items might be used in the commission of a serious violation of international humanitarian law (IHL). Criterion 2c has been in force since the adoption by the EU of Council Common Position 2008/944/CFSP on 8 December 2008.<\/p>

Since that time 295 Standard Individual Export Licence applications have been refused under Criterion 2 which covers human rights as well as international humanitarian law.<\/p>

Our current database does not breakdown refusals by subsets of the Criteria so the specific information requested cannot be provided except at disproportionate cost.<\/p>

The Government publishes Official Statistics (on a quarterly and annual basis) of licences granted and refused for military exports on GOV.UK. Country breakdowns can be found on these pages. <\/ins><\/p>

The Trade Envoy Programme primarily focuses on helping to facilitate bilateral trade and investment through soft power and fostering relationships in markets to which Trade Envoys are assigned.. In 16/17 Trade Envoys contributed towards £15.5bn in export wins.<\/p>

Annex A<\/strong> provides a breakdown of the number of visits each current Trade Envoy has undertaken since the programme began in 2012.<\/p>

DIT arranges a number of briefing roundtables throughout the year, to update Trade Envoys on departmental priorities. Trade Envoys are also able to use DIT's meeting rooms when receiving official visitors where appropriate. However DIT does not centrally hold information on the number of times they have had internal meetings and it could only be provided at disproportionate cost.<\/p>
