These amendments are being made to ensure compliance with the UK’s UN obligations, specifically to ensure changes made by the UN Security Resolution 2745 (2024) (as extended by Resolution 2789 (2025)), in relation to the Central African Republic, are reflected.\nRegulation 4 of the CAR Regulations is amended to include reference to the amendment of the scope of the arms embargo by Resolution 2745 (2024) in relation to armed groups and associated individuals operating in the Central African Republic. Regulation 20 of the CAR Regulations is amended to provide a definition of “armed group operating in the Central African Republic” and a definition of an “associated individual” of such a group. Regulations 21 to 28 of the CAR Regulations are amended in light of these changes.\nA full impact assessment has not been produced for these Regulations as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.
