OVERSEAS TERRITORIES

This Order amends certain Orders applying to the Overseas Territories relating to restrictive measures adopted by the United Nations and the European Union, and related Orders made under the Export Control Act 2002 applying to the Territories. The penalties and offences provisions of the Orders are modified by this Order in relation to the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia, and in relation to the Falklands Islands, South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands, the British Antarctic Territory, Saint Helena and Dependencies, the British Indian Ocean Territory, and the Pitcairn Islands to reflect the current constitution and procedures, including sentencing powers, of the judicial authorities in these territories. The effect of the modifications is to make available to the Resident Judge’s Court in the Sovereign Base Areas, and the Magistrate’s Court in the Falkland Islands and other territories specified in article 1(2)(b), the higher penalties applicable to conviction on indictment when sentencing.
