In establishing legal assessment criteria for the administration of export permit applications, the minister will be considering very similar criteria to what we already consider as part of the process. These, however, will be legally binding, so she must demonstrate that she has considered each one of those before making a decision or determining the outcome of a permit assessment.
Wherever we have general export permits in place or other administrative efficiencies, the minister will still have to demonstrate that she has taken these considerations into account, but it would then be with respect to all of the types of permits under a particular general permit.
The criteria are consistent, then, with what we already have, but we're going to have to document the explicit consideration of each of these elements.
