The Government today (March 20) gazetted the United Nations Sanctions (Somalia) Regulation 2019 (Amendment) Regulation 2020 (the Amendment Regulation), which came into operation today.
"The Amendment Regulation amends the United Nations Sanctions (Somalia) Regulation 2019 to implement the decisions on exemptions for arms embargo and financial sanctions, as well as the sanctions measures on improvised explosive device components, as set out in the United Nations Security Council Resolution 2498," a Government spokesman said.
The Amendment Regulation mainly amends or extends certain exemption conditions and arrangements in respect of arms embargo and financial sanctions, and implements the sanction measures prohibiting the supply of improvised explosive device components and related technology to Somalia.
