Made
Laid before Parliament
Coming into force
The Treasury are designated M1 for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 M2 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 Annex I to Council Regulation (EU) 2017/1770 M3 concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Mali, 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.
1972 c.68. Section 2(2) was amended by the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (c.51), section 27(1)(a) and the European Union (Amendment) Act 2008 (c.7), Schedule, Part 1. Paragraph 1(1)(d) of Schedule 2 to the 1972 Act is modified by section 144 of the Policing and Crime Act 2017 (c.3), in relation to the exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of the 1972 Act, for the purposes of implementing, or otherwise in relation to, EU obligations created or arising by or under an EU financial sanctions Regulation, as defined by section 143 of the 2017 Act. Paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to the 1972 Act was inserted by the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006, section 28 and amended by S.I. 2007/1388 and the European Union (Amendment) Act 2008, Schedule, Part 1.
