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 any reference to an Annex to Council Regulation (EU) No. 224/2014 of 10 March 20143 concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in the Central African Republic 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.
