EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations are made under the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018 (c.13) to establish a sanctions regime in relation to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) for the purposes of implementing many of the obligations that the United Kingdom has under UN Security Council Resolution 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094 (2013), 2270 (2016), 2321 (2016), 2356 (2017), 2371(2017), 2375(2017), and 2397 (2017). They also have the purposes of restricting the ability of the DPRK to carry on its nuclear, biological or chemical weapons programmes, other weapons of mass destruction programmes and ballistic missile programmes, to promote the abandonment of those programmes and the decommissioning of the weapons, and to promote peace, security and stability on the Korean peninsula.

Following the UK's withdrawal from the European Union, these Regulations replace the sanctions measures in relation to DPRK which are currently implemented through and under an EU Council Decision and Regulation.

Part 2 of the Regulations confers a power on the Secretary of State to designate persons who are, or have been, involved in certain activities, and makes provision for notification and publicity of such designations. It also provides for persons who are named by the UN to be designated persons. Designated persons are subject to various sanctions measures set out in subsequent Parts of the Regulations.

Part 3 of the regulations confers a power on the Secretary of State to specify ships for the purposes of various sanctions measures. It also makes provision in respect of notification and publicity where the power to specify a ship is used.

Chapter 1 of Part 4 provides for designated persons to be made subject to financial sanctions, including having their funds and/or economic resources frozen. Chapter 2 of Part 4 imposes further restrictions on the activities of designated persons and also on financial services, commercial activities and investment.

Part 5 provides for persons designated by the Secretary of State to be "excluded persons" under section 8B of the Immigration Act 1971, meaning generally that they must be refused leave to enter the United Kingdom and leave to remain in the United Kingdom, and any leave that has been granted is invalid.

Part 6 deals with trade restrictions on specified goods and technology. Related controls are also imposed on the provision of financial services and funds, technical assistance and brokering services. Chapter 1 deals with the restrictions on military and dual-use goods and technology, and other goods and technology related to arms and weapons of mass destruction (all as defined in the Regulations, including Schedule 2). Chapter 2 deals with restrictions on other goods. Chapter 3 deals with restrictions on certain services related to ships and aircraft.

Part 7 deals with restrictions on aviation and Part 8 with restrictions on shipping.

Part 9 provides for certain exceptions to this sanctions regime. Regulations 90, 91 and 92also confer powers on the Secretary of State to issue licences in respect of activities that would otherwise be prohibited under the sanctions measures imposed by Parts 6, 7 and 8. Regulations 88 and 89 confer powers on the Treasury to issue licences or directions to authorise activities which would otherwise be prohibited by Part 4, or to issue directions that certain requirements in Part 4 have effect subject to exceptions. Schedule 3 to these Regulations sets out further provision about the purposes for which the Treasury will issue licences in some cases. Regulation 93 makes additional provision in relation to licences, and regulation 94 makes additional provision in relation to directions. Regulation 98 makes provision about directions in relation to the Immigration Act 1971. This Part also provides for related offences.

Part 10 of the Regulations confers powers for obtaining and disclosing information to enable the effective implementation and enforcement of the sanctions regime, and impose obligations on various persons to report relevant information to the appropriate (specified) authorities. In Part 11, the Regulations prescribe the mode of trial and penalties that apply to offences under the Regulations. They also provide for the application of similar types of provision in the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979 to certain offences related to trade.

In Part 12 the Regulations also confer powers on specified maritime enforcement officers to stop and search ships in international and foreign waters for the purpose of enforcing specified trade sanctions and to seize goods found on board ships which are being, or have been, dealt with in contravention, or deemed contravention, of those prohibitions.

Part 13 contains supplemental and transitional provision and revocations. Regulations 127 and 128 make provision in relation to the interaction of these Regulations with the Export Control Order. Regulations 129 and 130 amend or revoke a number of instruments which currently implement sanctions measures against the DPRK: Council Regulation (EU) No 2017/1509 of 30 August 2017 concerning restrictive measures against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and repealing Regulation (EC) No 329/2007, the North Korea (United Nations Sanctions) Order 2009, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (European Union Financial Sanctions) Regulations 2017 and the Export Control (North Korea Sanctions) Order 2018.

An Impact Assessment has not been produced for these Regulations, as the instrument is intended to ensure existing sanctions remain in place following EU exit. This instrument is intended to substantially deliver the same policy effects as the existing EU sanctions. An impact assessment was, however, produced for the primary legislation and can be found at https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/bills/lbill/20172019/0069/sanctions-and-anti-money-laundering-IA.pdf.
