Vol. 475 No. 8
48 Mr. E. Byrne asked the Minister for Tourism and Trade the number of export licences for dual-use goods granted in each of the years from 1991 to 1996; the destinations of export licences granted in 1996; the plans, if any, he has to review the implementation of the dual-use regulations; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6013/97]
The information requested by the Deputy is contained in the following table.
The implementation of the EU regulation and joint action regarding the control of exports of dual-use goods is under ongoing review in the EU groups established for this purpose, which are attended by officials from my Department, and a number of changes to the list of dual-use goods has been approved by the Council of Ministers and published in the Official Journal.
I am continuing to keep under review the implementation of the regulation in this country with a view to ensuring that our control system is effective without imposing an undue burden on business.
