The Order made under the United Nations Act 1946 amends the North Korea (United Nations Measures) (Overseas Territories) Order 2006 (S.I. 2006/3327, as amended by S.I. 2007/1347 and S.I. 2009/888) (“the principal Order”). The amendments are to give effect to measures introduced by resolution 1874 (2009) adopted by the United Nations Security Council on the 12th June 2009 and certain aspects of its previous resolution 1718 (2006). The amendments to the principal Order are as follows:— Article 2 adds a revised definition of “restricted goods” and a new definition of “ship supply services” to article 2(1) of the principal Order. Article 3 replaces article 7 of the principal Order with a revised article 7 prohibiting the use of flag vessels or aircraft for the carriage of restricted goods either to or from North Korea, and for the carriage of prohibited luxury goods to North Korea. Article 4 introduces a new article 8A into the principal Order prohibiting the provision of ship supply services to North Korean ships in specified circumstances. Any person knowingly concerned in a breach of this prohibition in such circumstances commits an offence. Article 5 amends the penalties provisions in article 23 of the principal Order to provide penalties for a breach of article 8A. Article 6 makes a corresponding amendment to that in article 5 in the application of article 23 of the principal Order to the Sovereign Base Areas in Cyprus.

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.
