Explanatory Note
This Order, made under the United Nations Act 1946, applies to each of the territories specified in Schedule 2. It re-enacts, with certain modifications, the provisions of the Haiti (United Nations Sanctions) Order 1993 (S.I. 1993/1785) and imposes further restrictions pursuant to a decision of the Security Council of the United Nations in Resolution No. 917 of 6th May 1994 on the export of goods to Haiti and the supply of goods to persons connected with Haiti and on the importation of goods therefrom. It restricts certain related activities including the carriage of prohibited goods in ships, aircraft and vehicles. The Order also prohibits aircraft, except for scheduled passenger aircraft, from taking off from, landing in or overflying the United Kingdom if they are destined for, or have taken off from, Haiti. It also restricts the making of payments under any bond in respect of a contract the performance of which is unlawful by virtue of the Order, and prohibits the making of or obtaining payments under certain indemnities in respect of such bonds.
