Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order corrects an error made in the Trade in Controlled Goods (Embargoed Destinations) Order 2004 (SI 2004/318) so as to clarify that the defence in article 8(4) applies in respect of the offence created by article 8(1), which provides that any person who contravenes a prohibition or restriction in article 3 (supply and delivery of controlled goods) shall be guilty of a summary offence.

A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business.
