Written question asked by Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Baroness Wilcox (Conservative) on Thursday, 19 January 2012.


Re-Export Controls Bill [HL]

Question
To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Wilcox on 1 November (WA 251), whether they will permit the Re-Export Controls Bill [HL] to be referred to a second reading committee in the House of Commons, on the same basis as the Raoul Wallenberg (Memorial) Bill.
Answer

As I stated in my replies of 26 April and 6 June, I regret that the Government are unable to support the Re-export Controls Bill during its Commons stage, and the Motion to refer the Bill to a Second Reading Committee was not supported on that basis.
