Trade etc in Dual-use Items and Firearms etc (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (11 April 2019)

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, with reference to the Trade etc. in Dual-Use Items and Firearms etc. (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, what analysis he has carried out of the effect of those regulations on businesses.

Asked by:
Judith Cummins (Labour)

The Trade etc. in Dual-Use Items and Firearms etc. (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 were made to address inoperabilities and deficiencies of retained EU law arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the EU and to ensure the legislation operates effectively after exit. We have proposed the creation of a general online licence that would permit the export of the majority of dual-use items to the EU.
