Review of Freezing Assets of Corrupt Foreign Officials Ukraine Regulations - SOR/2014-44

Title of the statutory instrument

Freezing Assets of Corrupt Foreign Officials Ukraine Regulations - SOR/2014-44

Enabling Act

Freezing Assets of Corrupt Foreign Officials Act (FACFOA)

Rationale

Determining whether the listings under Freezing Assets of Corrupt Foreign Officials (Ukraine) Regulations must be maintained.

Narrative

The Freezing Assets of Corrupt Foreign Officials (Ukraine) Regulations was renewed by an extending order in 2019. As these measures have not been renewed and these regulations have no current application, the Department has assessed that these regulations could possibly be repealed.

It is necessary to evaluate if the repeal of the spent regulation and order would result in unintended legal consequences as most individuals listed in this instrument have been subsequently listed under the Special Economic Measures (Ukraine) Regulations.
