Baroness Goudie

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What proposals they have for exporting a ballistic undervest to the European Community Monitoring Mission (ECMM) in Bosnia. [HL828]

Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean

The Government have granted a licence for the export to Bosnia of a ballistic undervest for use by the Paymaster General at the European Community Monitoring Mission (ECMM) in Sarajevo. We were glad to approve this export licence in view of the obvious need for the ECMM to be able to protect its staff involved in international peace-keeping activities in the former Yugoslavia.
