Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, if he will publish the (a) number, (b) type and (c) item code for (i) all extant licences for military goods to Saudi Arabia and (ii) licences under reviewed as a result of the Court of Appeal Judgment of 20 June 2019; and what the timetable is for the completion of those reviews.

Details of military rated licences that were extant as at 24 June (9am) and were granted prior to 31 December 2018 have been placed in the libraries of the House.

Information about licences granted from 1 January 2019 onwards has not, as yet, been published as official statistics on GOV.UK and therefore cannot be disclosed at this time.

The data currently published on GOV.UK covers licences where a decision was made prior to 1 January 2019, with details of each licence correct as at 15 March 2019. Information from the period 1 January 2019 to 31 March 2019 will be published on 16 July 2019 and data covering the period 1 April 2019 to 30 June 2019 will be published in October 2019.

The Government is carefully considering the implications of the Court of Appeal Judgment for decision making. As part of this work we will be determining which licences would need to be reconsidered. At this stage it is uncertain how long this work will take.
