  7. MICHAEL NOONAN, Minister for Finance. EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation.) This Order provides for enforcement of financial sanctions prohibiting financial transfers between the State and another country, as outlined in Council Regulation (EC) No. 1210/2003 of 7 July 2003, as amended, concerning restrictive measures against Iraq. It replaces and updates S.I. No. 374 of 2010 to take account of Council Regulation (EU) No. 131/2011 of 14 February 2011 which extends the expiry date for articles 2 and 10 of Council Regulation (EC) No. 1210/2003 of 7 July 2003 from 31 December 2010 to 30 June
  8. The sanctions provided for in the Council Regulation include: • a provision that proceeds from the sale of petroleum, petroleum products and natural gas from Iraq are deposited into the Development Fund for Iraq; • a prohibition on trade in Iraqi cultural property; • the freezing of funds and economic resources of the previous Government of Iraq or of named public bodies and corporations associated with it; and • the freezing of funds and economic resources of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, his immediate family and his officials and close associates and their families, as listed under the Council Regulation. The Order provides that the Central Bank of Ireland may issue instructions for the purpose of giving full effect to the financial sanctions and requires compliance with such instructions. The Financial Transfers Act 1992 allows for control of financial transfers between the State and other countries, creates an offence for breach of the provisions of any Order made under it and provides for appropriate penalties. 1 OJ No. L.169, 8.7.03, p.
