Answered by Chris Bryant
The UK Government regularly publishes its own data on export licences and operates one of the most transparent export control regimes in the world.
The most recent publication of Official Statistics was on 30 April and covered the period 1 October 2025 – 31 December 2025. Information for the quarter to 31 March 2026 is planned to be published in due course: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/strategic-export-controls-quarterly-licensing-statistics.
The Government has also published specific information relating to export licensing to Israel (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/export-control-licensing-management-information-for-israel). These releases cover licensing decisions from 7 October 2023 to 28 February 2026, and detailed information on extant licences for military and dual-use items.
