COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 1137/2010
of 7 December 2010
amending Regulation (EC) No 147/2003 concerning certain restrictive measures in respect of Somalia
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 215(1) thereof,
Having regard to Council Decision 2010/231/CFSP of 26 April 2010 concerning restrictive measures against Somalia (1),
Having regard to the joint proposal from the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
Council Regulation (EC) No 147/2003 (2) imposes a general ban on the provision of technical advice, assistance, training, financing or financial assistance related to military activities, to any person, entity or body in Somalia. |
(2) |
By paragraph 7 of Resolution 1907 (2009), the UN Security Council calls upon Member States to inspect all cargo going to or coming from Somalia, where they believe that the cargo contains items prohibited either by paragraphs 5 and 6 of that Resolution or the general and complete arms embargo to Somalia, for the purpose of ensuring strict implementation of those provisions. |
(3) |
Decision 2010/231/CFSP provides for the inspection of certain cargoes to and from Somalia and, in the case of aircraft and vessels, for the supply of additional pre-arrival and pre-departure information in respect of goods brought into or out of the Union. That information must be provided in accordance with the provisions on entry and exit summary declarations of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code (3). |
(4) |
This measure falls within the scope of the Treaty and, therefore, notably with a view to ensuring its uniform application by economic operators in all Member States, Union legislation is necessary in order to implement it. |
(5) |
Regulation (EC) No 147/2003 should be amended accordingly, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
