Articles 3 to 9 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 2397, adopted on 22nd December 2017. This Order extends the offences related to carriage of goods to North Korea to include: industrial machinery, transportation vehicles, and iron, steel and others metals. It also extends the offences related to carriage of goods from North Korea to include: earth and stone, including magnesite and magnesia; food and agricultural products; machinery and electrical equipment; ships, boats and floating structures; and wood. This Order adds offences of providing classification services to, or knowingly registering or maintaining on the register, a ship that the person committing the offence has reasonable grounds to believe was involved in activities, or the transport of items, prohibited by relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions. This Order also adds an offence of knowingly obtaining or transferring, directly or indirectly, fishing rights 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.
