65: Clause 38, page 27, line 1, leave out subsections (2) and (3) and insert—
“(2) The condition referred to in subsection (1)(b) is that the appropriate Minister making the new regulations—
(a) considers that the regulations being amended will, as amended, be sanctions regulations within the meaning given by section 1(4) that are appropriate for the purpose stated in them under section 1(3), and
(b) if any purpose stated in the regulations being amended is a purpose other than compliance with a UN obligation or other international obligation, considers in respect of each such purpose—
(i) that carrying out that purpose would meet one or more of the conditions in paragraphs (a) to (d) of section 1(2),
(ii) that there are good reasons to pursue that purpose, and
(iii) that the imposition of sanctions is a reasonable course of action for that purpose.
(2A) In subsection (2)(b)(iii) “sanctions” means prohibitions and requirements of the kinds imposed by the amended regulations for the purpose in question (or both for that purpose and for another purpose of those regulations).
In this subsection “the amended regulations” means the regulations being amended as those regulations will be when amended.”
