EU: The EU Common Position defining common rules governing control of exports of military technology and equipment 28 requires EU Member States to regulate their trade in equipment on the Common Military List of the EU 29 with countries outside the EU.

The internal repression list is different to the lists of weapons and equipment developed in the EU Anti-Torture Regulation. 30 CoE: Recommendation CM/Rec(2021)2 of the Committee of Ministers to member States on measures against the trade in goods used for the death penalty, torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment provides guidance to CoE member States on reviewing their national legislation and practice on this issue, in order to make sure that they comply with the measures set out in the Recommendation and its appendix. 31 US: The United States maintains the US Commerce Control List (CCL), which controls the trade in a wide range of law enforcement and security equipment. 32 UK: The United Kingdom has a national control regime, which is based on the EU system and EU Anti-Torture Regulation discussed above. 33 27 Ibid, Article 14.
