Articles 3 to 19 of this Order amend the North Korea (United Nations Sanctions) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/1749), as amended, giving effect to certain aspects of further United Nations sanctions imposed against North Korea by the United Nations Security Council in resolution 2270, adopted on 2nd March 2016. In particular, this Order amends the offences related to carriage of goods to and from North Korea, and broadens the categories of goods to which offences apply. It also broadens the offences under the Order in relation to supplying services to North Korean ships. New offences are created in respect of leasing, chartering or provision of crew services, registration of ships, and access to ports. Articles 21 and 22 of this Order make minor amendments to provisions of the Iran (United Nations Sanctions) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/886), which were inserted by S.I. 2016/378. As these articles rectify omissions in S.I. 2016/378, this Order is being issued free of charge to recipients of S.I. 2016/378.

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.
