The Export Control (Sudan and South Sudan Sanctions) and (Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2011

Status:

Dyma’r fersiwn wreiddiol (fel y’i gwnaed yn wreiddiol).

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations make provision for penalties and enforcement of certain restrictive measures in Council Regulation (EC) No 131/2004 imposing certain restrictive measures in respect of Sudan and South Sudan (“the Sudan and South Sudan Regulation”).

The measures include prohibitions on the provision of technical assistance, financing or financial assistance related to military activities to any person, entity or body in, or for use in Sudan or South Sudan.

Regulation 2(1) revokes the Sudan (Technical Assistance and Financing and Financial Assistance)(Penalties and Licenses) Regulations 2004 (S.I. 2004/373), which are replaced by these Regulations.

Regulation 4 makes it an offence to contravene provisions in Articles 2 and 3 of the Sudan and South Sudan Regulation.

Regulation 5 supplements the provisions of the Sudan and South Sudan Regulation that allow a competent authority to authorise activities that are otherwise prohibited. Regulation 5(1) makes it an offence knowingly and recklessly to provide false information for the purpose of obtaining an authorisation. Authorisations may be subject to requirements or conditions which continue even after the activity authorised has been carried out. Regulation 5(3) makes it an offence to fail to comply with such continuing requirements or conditions unless they were imposed after the activity was carried out or amended after that time in such a way as to give rise to non-compliance.

Regulation 6 sets out the penalties relating to the offences in regulations 4 and 5.

Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs will enforce the provisions of the Regulations. Regulation 7 provides that the ancillary provisions which apply to their enforcement of customs and excise legislation apply to the enforcement of these Regulations.

Regulation 8 amends Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Export Control Order 2008 (S.I.2008/3231) to make South Sudan an ‘embargoed destination’ for the purposes of the application of trade controls under that Order.

Regulation 9 requires the Secretary of State to review the operation and effect of these Regulations and publish a report within five years after they come into force and within every five years after that. Following a review it will fall to the Secretary of State to consider whether the Regulations should remain as they are, or be revoked or be amended. A further instrument would be needed to revoke the Regulations or to amend them.

Regulation 10 amends the instruments listed in that regulation so as to revoke the provisions which deal with the limited overlap between the Export Control Order 2008 and those instruments.

A regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no or minimal impact on business, charities or voluntary bodies. A copy of the Explanatory Memorandum is published alongside this instrument on www.legislation.gov.uk. Further information is available from the Export Control Organisation, BIS, 1 Victoria Street, London SW1H 0ET and on BIS website (www.bis.gov.uk).
