Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

Council Regulation (EU) No 1227/2009f1 repeals Council Regulation (EC) No 1859/2005f2 (“the Original Regulation”) as a result of the Council of the European Union’s decision not to renew restrictive measures (which included an arms embargo) against Uzbekistan.

Article 2 of this Order revokes the Export Control (Uzbekistan) Order 2005, which implemented elements of the Original Regulation in the United Kingdom.

Article 3 of this Order amends the Export Control Order 2008 so that Uzbekistan is no longer subject to transit controls for all military goods but becomes subject to transit controls for category B goods.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
