HC Deb 28 November 1995 vol 267 c539W
Mr. Jim Cunningham

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what British companies have applied for export licences to supply arms to Nigeria in each year since 1993. [2876]

Mr. Oppenheim

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