The Policing and Crime Act (Financial Sanctions) (Overseas Territories) Order 2017
Under section 152(1) of the Policing and Crime Act 2017 (“the Act”), the Treasury has the power, by regulations, to create a temporary financial sanctions regime to implement a financial sanctions regime imposed by a new United Nations (“UN”) Security Council Resolution. Any such regulations must cease to have effect either when the EU implements the UN financial sanctions, or after the end of a default period.
