[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill would make the UK government follow stricter rules when deciding whether to sell weapons and military equipment to other countries. It aims to prevent arms sales to countries the government considers a concern, for example, those with poor human rights records or suspected of being dangerous, by giving Parliament more say in these decisions.

Presented by Tom Brake.
