Export Control Bill

EDM number 469 in 2001-02, proposed by Tony Worthington on 23/11/2001.

That this House congratulates the Government on introducing the Export Control Bill which represents a welcome step in strengthening the UK arms export regime; notes that a number of concerns have been identified in the Bill; further notes that the Bill could be strengthened to ensure that arms brokered or manufactured by UK citizens do not end up in the hands of terrorist groups or used to abuse human rights and exacerbate conflict; regrets that arms sales that damage sustainable development could still occur under the Bill; and calls on the Government to reconsider amendments raised at the committee and report stages during its passage in another place.

This motion has been signed by a total of 117 MPs.
