Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, how many UK-manufactured parts have been sold into the F35 global spare parts pool since (a) 7 October 2023 and (b) 2 September 2024; and how many of these parts have been transferred to Israel.

The Department for Business and Trade does not hold information on the quantity of goods exported under Open General Export Licences. The principle of such licences – such as those for UK suppliers to the F-35 programme – is that they allow registered companies to export an unrestricted quantity of permitted items.

Due to the design of the programme, the UK Government also does not have access to information about the movement of specific F-35 components around the F-35 global programme, including the provision of parts to specific customers.
