EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order suspends financial sanctions provisions of the Zimbabwe (Sanctions) (Overseas Territories) Order 2012 which gave effect in certain overseas territories to sanctions against Zimbabwe adopted by the Council of the European Union.

On 27th March 2013, by Council Decision 2013/160/CFSP, in view of positive political developments in Zimbabwe, the Council of the European Union decided to suspend, in relation to the majority of designated persons and entities, the application of all financial sanctions. The Council of the European Union will review the suspension every three months.

This Order also makes minor corrections to the principal Order.
