To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many (a) prosecutions and (b) convictions under the Export Control Order 2008 have taken place in each year since 2008.

Mr David Gauke

There has been one prosecution/conviction under the Export Control Order 2008 since 2008, however there have been a number of successful prosecutions under other export control legislation. Details of those prosecutions can be found in the Annual Reports on Strategic Export Controls in the House of Commons library. The report for the most recent complete year (2013-2014) is due to be published in mid-July.
