Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, how many decisions on standard individual export licence applications for export to Israel were made between 1 and 31 August 2014; and what proportion of the decisions on such applications were successful.

8 decisions for Standard Individual Export Licences were made for direct export to Israel, all of which were decisions to grant a licence.

Our assessment is that the licences granted are not for items that could be used by Israeli forces in operations in Gaza in response to attacks in Hamas.
