Made
Laid before Parliament
Coming into force
The Treasury are designated1 for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 19722 in relation to restrictive measures against persons or bodies listed by an international organisation.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of that Act and it appears to the Treasury that it is expedient for the reference to Annex I to Council Regulation (EU) No. 356/2010 of 26 April 20103 imposing certain specific restrictive measures directed against certain natural or legal persons, entities and bodies, in view of the situation in Somalia, to be construed as a reference to that Annex as amended from time to time.
The Treasury, in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972, make the following Regulations.
