§ Mr. JannerTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what is the Government's policy regarding exports to(a) Israel, (b) Iran, (c) Iraq, (d) Syria, (e) Kuwait, (f) Saudi Arabia, (g) Jordan and (h) Egypt.
§ Mr. McLoughlinI have been asked to reply.
Apart from Iraq, which is subject to a UN trade embargo and where special arrangements therefore apply, United Kingdom exporters are free, and indeed encouraged, to trade with the countries listed. However, goods covered by the Export of Goods Control Order 1992, as amended, are subject to various restrictions, which will vary from country to country.
