Explanatory note

This Order amends the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (Sanctions) (Overseas Territories) Order 2012. This Order gives effect in specified Overseas Territories to the additional sanctions against North Korea adopted by the United Nations Security Council in resolution 2094 (2013), which are reflected and implemented in EU Council Decision 2013/183/CFSP and Council Regulation (EU) 296/2013. The Council Decision prohibits banks and financial institutions established in North Korea from opening branches, acquiring a joint venture, establishing correspondent banking relationships, or maintaining correspondent banking relationships in certain circumstances. This Order also implements prohibitions introduced by the European Union in Council Decision 2013/153/CFSP on the sale or purchase of gold, precious metals or diamonds; the sale or purchase of North Korean bonds, and the movement of North Korean bank notes.

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.
