"Export controls of dual-use items, meaning goods which can be used for both civil and military purposes, have been the subject of EU level actions for around 15 years. Controlling the export of dual-use goods is a key for the non-proliferation of arms, including weapons of mass destruction. The main EU export control tool is the Dual-use Regulation 428/2009 of 5 May 2009, which entered into force on 27 August 2009, and introduces a number of significant changes to the scope of dual-use export controls. Several additional amendments have been proposed to help to make the EU’s dual-use regime more democratic and transparent. The entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon and its clarification concerning the EU’s competences in the area of international trade provide a good opportunity to reaffirm the EU’s role in these formations and the European Parliament’s role, powers and responsibilities within the EU’s institutional framework for decision making.
The EU’s dual-use regime should be organised in a more transparent and democratic manner. I believe that full European Parliament involvement, through the application of the Lisbon Treaty’s obligations and its joint interpretation agreed by the European Parliament and the European Commission within the new framework agreement, would be crucial to achieving this objective."@en1
