Annual Report According to the Article 8 (2) of Council Common Position 2008/1944/CFSP defining Common Rules governing Control of Exports of Military Technology and Equipment
NATIONAL REPORT OF FINLAND FOR 2013
1. REPORTING PERIOD AND SCOPE Reporting period is the year 2013, 1.1.-31.12.2013. This report covers commercial
exports by the Finnish defence industry authorised under the Act on the Export of Defence Materiel.
2. LEGAL BASIS AND NATIONAL LICENSING GUIDELINES
The basic principles, policies and national practices on export, transit and arms brokering of conventional arms and related technology are outlined in the relevant Finnish legislation: the Act on the Export of Defence Materiel. The export of defence materiel and
its transit is allowed only if authorisation (an export licence) has been granted. Provisions on controlling arms brokering are incorporated into the Act on the Export of Defence Materiel. The guiding principle is simple; the same controls apply to brokering as apply to export
and transit of defence materiel. Authorisation for export, transit or arms brokering will not be granted if it jeopardises Finland’s security or is in contradiction with Finland’s
foreign policy. All applications are examined on a case-by-case basis based on an overall assessment. The
following factors shall be taken into account in the overall assessment of licence applications:
- foreign and security policy aspects, including the relevant UN, OSCE, EU and other
international obligations be they decisions on arms embargoes, multilateral restraints, criteria, principles or guidelines of multilateral export control regimes - an analysis of the situation prevailing in the recipient country, especially with
regard to human rights, including attitudes of other States vis-à-vis the recipient country - the characteristics, intended use and military significance of the item to be
exported - the significance of the item and export in relation to the materiel preparedness of Finnish national defence and to the development of domestic defence industry.
2
The EU Code of Conduct on Arms Exports is incorporated into the Finnish legislation. In ambiguous cases, a restrictive approach is preferred. If the export of the item in question, by virtue of its characteristics and significance, will not lead to, or in all likelihood will not to be used in violations
of human rights, offensive armed action or other comparable unacceptable purposes inside or outside the recipient country, the granting of a licence may be recommended if the overall assessment on all other accounts is favourable and if the formal licensing requirements have been
met. There are specific rules for the export licensing of components and sub-systems of any defence equipment.
Legislation on arms brokering came into force in Finland on December 1st, 2002. Provisions on controlling arms brokering were incorporated into the Act on the Export and Transit of Defence Materiel. Finnish legislation is in full compliance with the Common
Position on arms brokering adopted by Council of the European Union in June 2003. The provisions on arms brokering also implement the provisions of the UN Firearms Protocol and the OSCE Document on Small Arms and Light Weapons as well as the norms set out
in the UN Programme of Action on Small Arms and Light Weapons. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) maintains a database of all licences granted. The licences
are public documents in Finland and available for reading or photocopying at the MoD registry. The MoD publishes detailed statistics of all licences granted on an annual basis.
The relevant Finnish legislation is as follows: Act on the Export of Defence Materiel (282/2012)
- a concise framework law stipulating the authorisation and procedure as well as sanctions in case of violations
- implements the EU Common List of Military Equipment - establishes the following responsibilities for various authorities:
1. Ministry of Defence (MoD): licensing authority 2. Council of State (Council of Ministers): grants licences for all major
exports 3. Ministry for Foreign Affairs (MFA): advises on foreign and security policy considerations
4. Customs: enforcement
