EXPLANATORY NOTE
These Regulations amend the United Nations and European Union Financial Sanctions (Linking) Regulations 2017 (S.I. 2017/478) so that United Nations Security Council Resolution 2374 (2017) of 5th September 2017 and Council Regulation (EU) 2017/1770 of 28th September 2017 concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Mali (OJ No. L 251, 29.09.2017, p.1) are linked for the purposes of section 155 of the Policing and Crime Act 2017 (c.3), which provides that where a person is designated under a UN financial sanctions Resolution, they will be treated for a temporary period as being designated under the corresponding EU financial sanctions Regulation.
An impact assessment has not been prepared for this instrument because no impact on the private or voluntary sector is foreseen.
