Arms Trade
Asked by: Brendan O'Hara (Scottish National Party - Argyll, Bute and South Lochaber) Monday 30th June 2025 Question to the Department for Business and Trade: To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps he plans to take to regulate arms exports in line with international (a) legal and (b) human rights obligations; and what assessment he has made of the potential merits of new international regulations over goods that could be used for torture. Answered by Douglas Alexander - Minister of State (Cabinet Office) All export licences are assessed on a case-by-case basis against the UK’s Strategic Export Licensing Criteria. Criterion 1 requires us to comply with the UK’s international commitments and obligations (including our treaty obligations), and Criterion 2 requires us specifically to determine if there is a clear risk that the exported items might be used to commit or facilitate internal repression, including torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment, or to commit or facilitate violations of international humanitarian law. The Government will not grant an export licence if doing so would be inconsistent with the Criteria.
We keep all extant licences under regular review and have suspended licences where concerns that they may violate the criteria have emerged. The UK also continues to work internationally to improve the robustness of international arms transfers and human rights assessments, with the goal of bringing them to the highest possible standards. |
Israel and West Bank: British Nationals Abroad
Asked by: Brendan O'Hara (Scottish National Party - Argyll, Bute and South Lochaber) Thursday 3rd July 2025 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, how many evacuation flights have been arranged for UK nationals from (a) Israel, and (b) the West Bank since 13 June 2025. Answered by Hamish Falconer - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The UK Government have arranged six flights from Israel since 24 June. At this time, no further flights are planned. Commercial flights are now available. This remains a fast-moving and fragile situation, and plans will be kept under constant review. |
