That regulation also clarifies when a person may be considered to be a member of, or associated with, an involved person for the purposes of the designation criteria. This includes a list of immediate family members.
Regulation 6 amends Part 3 of the 2019 Regulations to limit the funds that Belarus can raise by restricting its access to the UK securities.
