Part 1: Sanctions regulations Chapter 2: Review by appropriate Minister Section 25: Right of UN-named person to request review
Under this section a person who has been designated in order to comply with a UN designation may request that the appropriate Minister use their best endeavours to persuade the UN to remove them from the relevant UN instrument. The appropriate Minister must decide whether or not to comply with this request. Once a request has been made, further requests cannot be made unless there is a significant new matter (similar to the provision under section 23). This section reflects the fact that the UK is under a binding obligation in international law to designate the person, and the obligation persists until the designation is lifted by the UN itself.
