Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Order) — published with the instrument by the department that made it. © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
Resolution 1572, adopted on 15 November 2004 by the Security Council of the United Nations, imposed certain restrictive measures in respect of the Ivory Coast. Security Council resolution 1643, adopted on 15 December 2005, renewed those provisions of resolution 1572 requiring renewal, and in addition imposed a ban on the importation of rough diamonds from the Ivory Coast. This Order amends the Ivory Coast (Restrictive Measures) (Overseas Territories) Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/242), to give effect to that ban.
Offences created by this instrument
- Importation of rough diamonds from the Ivory Coast article 5A(2) · Status not determined · Strict liability
What Parliament said about it
Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.
How Parliament handled it
Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
