I have been asked to reply.

Details of major equipment exported to Indonesia in 1998 are included in Part 3 of the Government's second Annual Report on Strategic Export Controls. This information is taken from the UK entry to the UN Arms Register. Details of exports from 1 January 1999 to 16 September 1999 will be published in due course in the next Annual Report. There was an EU embargo on export of military goods between 17 September 1999 and 16 January 2000.

Information on the date of export is not published by Customs and could be made available only at disproportionate cost.
