Sanctions and Asset-Freezing (Automatic Implementation of UK Sanctions) (Jersey) Amendment Order 2025. Minister for External Relations.

This Order amends the Sanctions and Asset-Freezing (Implementation of External Sanctions) (Jersey) Order 2021 (the "Sanctions Order") in relation to the automatic implementation of the UK's sanctions regime.

Article 1 states that this Order amends the Sanctions Order.

Article 2 amends Article 4. Article 2 provides for UK sanctions instruments listed in Schedule 1 to have automatic effect in Jersey, subject to exceptions. Article 4 provides that a person who breaches a provision (other than an asset-freezing provision) in a UK sanctions instrument, which imposes a prohibition or obligation, commits an offence carrying imprisonment for up to 7 years and an unlimited fine. But this applies only if the UK sanctions provision –

1. is listed in column 5 of the table in Schedule 1; or
2. is in a UK sanctions instrument relating to the Republic of Belarus or Russia.

This means that under the Sanctions Order as drafted, if the UK amends its sanctions instruments relating to the Republic of Belarus or Russia to add a new prohibition or obligation breach of which is a criminal offence in the UK, the offence in Article 4 will apply automatically to a breach of that new prohibition or obligation in Jersey ("automatic implementation").

Article 4 is amended to extend automatic implementation to all the UK sanctions instruments listed in Schedule 1.

But the Minister retains the power to modify or disapply a particular prohibition or obligation by amending the Sanctions Order.

Paragraph 6 of Schedule 2 provides that a UK sanctions provision that requires or permits a person to provide information or prohibits a person from disclosing information (an "information provision") has automatic effect in Jersey only if there is not an equivalent information provision in the Sanctions Order or in Part 6 (information) of the Sanctions and Asset-Freezing (Jersey) Law 2019 (the "Sanctions Law").

Article 4 is amended so that if a UK information provision has automatic effect in Jersey under Article 2, the offence of contravening that provision attracts the penalties set out in Part 6 of the Sanctions Law (imprisonment for a term of 12 months and a fine of level 3 on the standard scale).

Article 3 makes a consequential amendment to the table in Schedule 1, to delete column 5.
