Annex A
DECISIONS BETWEEN
1 JANUARY AND
31 DECEMBER 1999 TO
REFUSE OR
UPHOLD AN
APPEAL AGAINST
A DECISION
TO REFUSE
AN APPLICATION
OR REVOKE
A LICENCE
The Committee asked the Government to provide
details of the appeals within the period covered by the Report
against (i) a decision to refuse an application for a standard
individual export licence (SIEL) or an Open Individual Export
Licence (OIEL), or (ii) to revoke a SIEL or OIEL.
As noted in the memorandum submitted to the
Committee by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office on the roles
and responsibilities of the main departments involved in the licensing
process (HC540, pp 80-86), there is no provision in the licensing
procedure for a formal appeal against decisions to refuse or revoke
an OIEL. Such decisions do not prevent a company from applying
for a SIEL covering some or all of the same goods to any of the
destinations concerned; the factors that led to the original decision
would obviously be taken into account in the decision on any such
application.
For the period covered by the 1999 Annual Report,
the Export Control Organisation did not maintain a central record
of appeals against decisions to refuse or revoke a SIEL. Nevertheless,
25 appeals against the original decision to refuse an application
for an SIEL have been identified; and no appeals against a decision
to revoke such a licence. The appeal against the original decision
on 18 applications was rejected; the appeal against the original
decision on application Nos 548729, 550019, 548860, 546084, 546181
& 545773 were upheld and a licence issued.
The applicants are being informed that the Committee
might approach them, and that information on the relevant decisions
has been provided in confidence to the Committee at Annex E.[2]
