The goods on this licence were presented to UK Customs for export on 22 February 2018. This licence is now exhausted.

United Nations reports are considered as part of the application process. The issue of the licence was consistent with the Consolidated EU and National Arms Export Licensing Criteria and remained so at the time of export.
