Licence applicants are required to provide full details of the proposed end-use of the items to be exported. These are then assessed as part of the licence application process, which is considered against the Consolidated EU and National Arms Export Criteria. Post export, the Department receives information from a variety of sources, either directly or via other Government Departments, including from Non-Government Organisations and through diplomatic reporting.
