HC Deb 15 February 1991 vol 185 c603W
Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will list in theOfficial Report all chemical weapons precursors which are subject to United Kingdom export controls.

Mr. Sainsbury

Chemical weapons precursors subject to control are listed in the Export of Goods (Control) (Amendment No. 6) Order 1990 made on 20 December. A copy is available in the Library.

The export of any chemical is subject to control if the exporter knows or has grounds for suspecting that it is intended for, or likely to be used in, the production of chemical weapons.
