(This note is not part of the Regulation)
The Burma (Sale, Supply and Export of Goods) (Penalties) (Amendment) Regulations 2003 make two changes to the principal Regulations. These changes reflect amendments to Council Regulation (EC) No 1081/2000 on Burma sanctions, by Council Regulation (EC) No 1211/2003:
(a) Article 2(2) makes it an offence to contravene the prohibition in Regulation 1a, which relates to military and para-military technical assistance and training;
(b) Article 2(3) extends the scope of the prohibition on exports to Regulation 1a.
