Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Clark of Windermere (Labour). It was answered on Tuesday, 14 May 2013.
Security: Fake Bomb Detectors
- Question
-
Will the Minister clarify a very simple and specific point: were these fraudulent bomb detectors given approval by any British government agency such as DSO?
- Answer
-
My Lords, to the best of my knowledge no such approval was given. Most of our export is done through UKTI, which normally does not endorse the sale from this country of items of that nature. However, we have now brought in a policy within BIS to make sure that UKTI gets disclaimers signed by people who sell such equipment.
