The European Commission has amended Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No. 753/2011 ("the 2011 Regulation") with effect from 2 August 2012. Annex I of the 2011 Regulation lists the persons, groups and entities covered by the freezing of funds and economic resources under that Regulation. The amendments reflect the decision made on 19 July by the United Nations Sanctions Committee established pursuant to resolution 1988 (2011) to remove two individuals from the UN List.
The individuals removed from Annex I are therefore no longer subject to the asset freeze imposed by the 2011 Regulation.
