Recommendation
In response to our Report, the Government should set out the steps it took in respect of licences already granted prior to the October 2019 announcement. In the interest of transparency, the Government should also provide details of the additional assessments that were made and the factors taken into account in decision making in respect of exports to Turkey following its 2019 announcement. The Government Developments in UK Strategic Export Controls 49 should also set out the rationale for its December 2021 announcement that it is satisfied that decisions on all licence applications to Turkey can be taken, following a careful assessment against the Strategic Export Licensing Criteria on a case-by-case basis.
