Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, how many arms export licences of what value and type have been issued for exports to (a) Saudi Arabia and (b) Yemen in each of the last five years.

The Government publishes (on a quarterly and annual basis) comprehensive information about export licences granted and refused on gov.uk.

A summary of the licences granted for export of military goods and technology to Saudi Arabia and Yemen for each of the last five full calendar years detailed below. Please note Open Individual Export Licences (OIELs) are generally not limited by quantity or value and therefore we are unable to give a figure for the value of the goods that might be exported.
