These Regulations are made under the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018 (c. 13) to amend the Russia (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (S.I. 2019/855) (“the 2019 Regulations”). Regulations 3 to 8 and 12(2) to (5) and (8) amend Part 5 of the 2019 Regulations relating to trade, and both amend existing Schedules and insert new ones. New restrictions are imposed in relation to trade in— maritime goods and maritime technology in certain circumstances (regulation 5); military goods and technology with non-government controlled Ukrainian territory (as specified in new Chapter 2A of Part 5); defence and security goods and technology (as specified in Parts 2 to 4 of new Schedule 3C); interception and monitoring services; banknotes; jet fuel and fuel additives (as specified in an addition to Part 8 of Schedule 2A); and goods which generate significant revenues for Russia (as specified in new Schedule 3D). As a result of those amendments— regulation 3 amends the definitions of “critical-industry goods”, “critical-industry technology”, “restricted goods” and “restricted technology” for the purposes of Part 5 of the 2019 Regulations; regulation 7 inserts additional prohibitions in Chapter 4C of Part 5 of the 2019 Regulations relating to trade in ancillary services relating to iron and steel goods and makes consequential amendments; regulation 9 extends prohibitions in Part 5 of the 2019 Regulations in relation to trade in certain items with non-government controlled Ukrainian territory; regulation 12(6) adds further things to the list of oil and refining goods and technology in Schedule 2D and regulation 12(7) adds further things to the list of energy-related goods in Schedule 3 in respect of which trade is prohibited. Regulation 10 amends Part 7 of the 2019 Regulations to create exceptions to some of the new prohibitions. Regulation 11 makes consequential amendments in relation to offences. Regulation 13 revokes the Russia (Sanctions) (EU Exit) (Amendment) (No. 10) Regulations 2022 (S.I. 2022/689).

• Sanctions Commons · Commons Chamber · 22 September 2022 · Jesse Norman

  I would rather not, because I have not much time, but let me just say this. My hon. Friend talked about the extension of designation, and this makes the point about the evolving nature of the threat. It is important to get the sanctions in quickly, but as the response evolves, so we must evolve it, and that is what we have done. Being associated with a designated person now includes obtaining financial benefit or other material benefit, or being an immediate family member, which means a wife, a husband, a civil partner, a parent or step-parent, a child or stepchild, a sibling or…

  I join my hon. Friend the Member for Thirsk and Malton (Kevin Hollinrake) in welcoming the Minister to his place, and I also find myself in the strange position of thanking the shadow Minister for raising the issue of loopholes. This is an issue specific to my constituency, and relates to a business that has potentially been affected by such loopholes. I speak on behalf of JD UK/Alunet Systems, but I clarify that I will be supporting the sanctions and will not press the House to a Division—I am sure there will be a sigh of relief all round. Alunet Systems is a group of companies based in…
