(This note is not part of the Regulations)
Council Regulation (EC) No. 2488/2000 of 10th November 2000 maintains a freeze on the funds of Mr Milosevic and of the persons associated with him who are listed in Annex I to the Regulation. Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1205/2001 of 19th June 2001 amends Regulation 2488/2000 by substituting a new, and much shorter, version of Annex I.
The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Freezing of Funds) Regulations 2001 provide that breaches of certain provisions of Regulation 2488/2000 are to be criminal offences. The present Regulations amend those Regulations so that they refer to Council Regulation 2488/2000 as amended by Commission Regulation 1205/2001.
