A Bill to make provision for the regulation of the re-export of military equipment and goods further to their original exportation from the United Kingdom.
House of Lords
1 May 2012
The Re-Export Controls Bill would give the UK new powers to regulate the re-export of military equipment and related goods that were originally exported from the UK. It would require licences for re-exports, set out what counts as a re-export, and establish enforcement measures to prevent evading controls.
The Bill is currently at the second reading in the House of Commons after originating in the Lords. It will move to Committee Stage for detailed scrutiny, then to Report and Third Readings in the Commons, and finally return to the Lords for consideration, with amendments possible during passage.
