Regulation 22 Supply and delivery of military goodsI1
United Kingdom
A person must not directly or indirectly supply or deliver military goods from a third country to F1an armed group operating in the Central African Republic or an associated individual.
Paragraph (1) is subject to Part 6 (Exceptions and licences).
A person who contravenes the prohibition in paragraph (1) commits an offence, but it is a defence for a person charged with that offence to show that the person did not know and had no reasonable cause to suspect that the goods were destined (or ultimately destined) for F2an armed group operating in the Central African Republic or an associated individual.
In this regulation, “third country” means a country that is not the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man or the Central African Republic.
