[Hugh Bayley in the Chair] — Arms Exports and Controls (30 Oct 2014)

John Stanley: ...to have erected an additional hurdle before revocations or suspensions can take place to extant arms exports licences to Israel. I want to highlight to her an extraordinary contradiction that I am sure we will want to pursue. The Government have on the one hand dropped the broad test in the October 2000 statement of the right hon. Member for Neath (Mr Hain) from the consolidated criteria,...

[Hugh Bayley in the Chair] — Arms Exports and Controls (30 Oct 2014)

Tobias Ellwood: ...how appallingly the last Minister failed to answer all the questions posed to him. I should make it clear that I am substituting for the Minister who should have replied to the debate, so I am not sure whether I will fare any better, although I can give a commitment that if I am unable to answer any questions, I will endeavour to write to right hon. and hon. Members individually. In that...

[Hugh Bayley in the Chair] — Arms Exports and Controls (30 Oct 2014)

Ian Murray: ...scene and landscape, and I hope that in 12 months’ time—when we come back to look at any further reports from the CAEC—things are better and not worse than they were last year, because I am sure that 12 months on from last year we would all agree that things are now worse, not better. I will start by touching briefly on the contribution that the UK defence sector makes, not only to...

[Hugh Bayley in the Chair] — Arms Exports and Controls (30 Oct 2014)

Ann McKechin: .... Was there a discussion between No. 10, the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, the Foreign Office or the Department for International Development about setting that qualification? I am sure that the document went past every single relevant ministerial desk before it was issued to our Committees. Has there been any discussion with our EU partners about a common approach on...

[Hugh Bayley in the Chair] — Arms Exports and Controls (30 Oct 2014)

John Stanley: The right hon. Gentleman makes an important point as a member of the Committees on Arms Export Controls and the Chair of the International Development Committee, and I am sure that the Minister will want to respond to it.

[Hugh Bayley in the Chair] — Arms Exports and Controls (30 Oct 2014)

John Stanley: ...the Prime Minister’s statement means that all new licence applications to Russia are being refused, or only some, and if only some, which? The Minister’s clarification will be helpful. I am sure that there was great concern among hon. Members on both sides of the House about some of the measures taken by the Hong Kong security authorities against those who were exercising their right...

[Hugh Bayley in the Chair] — Arms Exports and Controls (30 Oct 2014)

John Stanley: ...I hope that a lesson has been learned by the Hong Kong police that it is not acceptable to use tear gas against those who are demonstrating peacefully. It remains a matter of concern to me, and I am sure that the members of the Committees will want to look closely at the analysis that accompanied my letter to the Business Secretary. The Committees will want to scrutinise closely whether it...

[Hugh Bayley in the Chair] — Arms Exports and Controls (30 Oct 2014)

John Stanley: ...UK Government’s arms control and arms export control policies, rather than just resting on ministerial generalisations. The Committees are not remotely self-satisfied about our scrutiny and are sure that we can improve it further, but I believe that now in the UK Parliament we have the most detailed and most open parliamentary scrutiny of the Government’s arms export policies of any of...
