Explanatory Note
(This Note is not part of the Regulations)These Regulations suspend the coming into force of the Dual-Use and Related Goods (Export Control) Regulations 1995 ("the principal Regulations") until Council Regulation (EC) No. 3381/94 has been published in the Official Journal of the European Communities. Both the principal Regulations and the Council Regulation should have had effect from 1st March 1995. The Council Regulation, however, cannot, by virtue of its own Article 24 and Article 191 of the EC Treaty, come into force until it has been published, and publication is being delayed until after 1st March 1995. As a result, the Council Regulation and therefore the principal Regulations cannot come into force until after that date.
One effect is that the amendments of the Export of Goods (Control) Order 1994 (S.I. 1994/1191, as amended by S.I. 1994/1632, 2518 and 2711) made by regulation 13 of the principal Regulations will not have effect until the Council Regulation has been published.
None of this affects the coming into force of the principal Regulations for the purposes of issuing general licences, which occurred on 14th February 1995.
