Articles 3 to 8 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 2375, adopted on 11th September 2017. Articles 8 and 10 also give effect to certain aspects of United Nations sanctions against North Korea by the United Nations Security Council in resolution 2371, adopted on 5th August 2017. This Order amends the offences related to carriage of goods to North Korea to broaden the goods to which the offences apply. They now include condensates and natural gas liquids, refined petroleum products, and crude oil, as defined in Council Regulation (EU) 2017/1509, as amended. It also extends the offences related to carriage of goods from North Korea to include textiles, also as defined in Council Regulation 2017/1509, as amended. This Order creates an offence relating to the facilitation of or engagement in ship-to-ship transfers concerning North Korean ships and items being transported to or from North Korea.

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 has no record of this instrument, although it covers the period. Nothing is inferred from that.
