Annex Bii
OPEN INDIVIDUAL EXPORT LICENCES (OIELs) FROM
WHOSE DESTINATION COVERAGE COUNTRIES WERE EXCLUDED BETWEEN 1 JANUARY
AND 31 DECEMBER 1998
The Committee asked the Government to provide
details of (i) the 6 OIELs whose coverage was reduced, as set
out in Table 5 of the Report.
The destination coverage of a total of six OIELs
was amended to exclude particular destinations: five by removal
of countries from a list of permitted destinations; and one by
the addition of countries to a list of excluded destinations.
The destination coverage of OIELs is amended
for a variety of reasons, but mainly in light of advice received
from other departments. Sometimes, amendments follow the imposition
of an arms embargo, but they may also reflect general concerns
about the country concerned or a relevant change in circumstances
there. A decision to remove a particular country from the destination
coverage of an OIEL does not prevent the company from applying
for a standard individual export licence covering the export of
some or all of the goods covered by the OIEL to a destination
that has been excluded from the coverage of that OIEL. However,
the factors that led to the decision to exclude the country would
obviously be taken into account in the decision of any such application.
In addition, a decision to exclude a particular destination from
the coverage of an OIEL does not mean that the country is permanently
excluded and, where the concerns that led to the original decision
are no longer relevant, it might be decided to reinstate the country
concerned.
