HC Deb 03 July 1992 vol 210 cc757-8W
Mr. Cousins

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what relationship his export licensing department has with trade authorised by companies registered in the states of Guernsey.

Mr. Needham

Exports of goods from Guernsey are authorised by the states of Guernsey board of administration under the powers conferred upon it under the Import and Export (Control) (Guernsey) Law 1946. The states of Guernsey export controls mirror those of the United Kingdom as implemented under the Export of Goods (Control) Order 1991.

Since 1976 the states of Guernsey have consulted Her Majesty's Government before issuing export licences for certain highly sensitive goods subject to export control in the United Kingdom under Export of Goods (Control) Orders.
