The Export Control Organisation (ECO) publishes Quarterly Reports and Quarterly Figures, including licensing performance statistics details. These statistics are measured against pre-defined performance targets.

The ECO also contributes to the government's UK Strategic Export Controls Annual Report (produced by the Foreign Office), which includes details of licensing performance statistics against defined targets.

The ECO also undertakes an annual customer satisfaction survey as part of its commitment to deliver an effective licensing service.

Committees on Arms Export Controls

The work of ECO is subject to parliamentary scrutiny from the Committees on Arms Export Controls. This is a House of Commons Select Committee made up of members of parliament from the following committees:

Business and Enterprise

Defence

Foreign Affairs

International Development

It is responsible for examining the Annual and Quarterly Reports on Export Controls and holds the ECO to account. It examines the Government's expenditure, administration and policy on strategic exports and the licensing of arms exports and other controlled goods.
