HC Deb 03 July 1995 vol 263 cc64-5W
Mr. Tony Lloyd

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what were the number and type of export licences issued for military equipment for use by(a) the Nigerian police force and (b) the Nigerian UN peace keeping corps for 1994 and for 1995 to date. [31779]

Mr. Ian Taylor

It has been the practice of successive Governments not to reveal details of export licences or applications for licences unless the requirements of confidentiality are outweighed by the public interest.
