Regulation 22 Supply and delivery of military goodsI1I2
United Kingdom
A person must not directly or indirectly supply or deliver military goods from a third country to a non-governmental person operating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
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 a non-governmental person operating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
In this regulation, “third country” means a country that is not the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man or the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
