EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

Until 17 June 2011, Al Qaida and the Taliban
were subject to sanctions under Resolution 1267 (1999). On 17 June 2011, the United Nations Security Council decided to separate measures
against Al Qaida and measures against the Taliban into two separate Resolutions
1988 (2011) and 1989 (2011).

In accordance with UNSCR 1988 (2011), Council
Decision 2011/[...]/CFSP of [...] provides for the adoption of restrictive measures
directed against certain individuals, groups, undertakings and entities in view
of the situation in Afghanistan.

These measures consist of the freezing
of funds and economic resources, restrictions on the admission to the EU,
prohibition on the direct and indirect supply, sale or transfer, of weapons and
military equipment, and prohibition on the provision of related assistance and
services to persons and entities designated by the Sanctions Committee
established in accordance with paragraph 30 of UNSCR 1988 (2011).

Further action at Union level is
required in order to give effect to some of these measures. The High
Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the
Commission propose to give effect to these measures by means of a Regulation
based on Article 215(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union
(TFEU).

2011/0201 (NLE)

Joint Proposal for a

COUNCIL REGULATION

concerning restrictive measures directed
against certain individuals, groups, undertakings and entities in view of the
situation in Afghanistan

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning
of the European Union, and in particular Article 215(2) thereof,

Having regard to Council Decision 2011/[...]/CFSP
of [...] concerning restrictive measures directed against certain
individuals, groups, undertakings and entities in view of the situation in Afghanistan,

Having regard to the joint proposal from
the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy
and the European Commission,

After consulting the European Data
Protection Supervisor,

Whereas:

(1)
On 17 June 2011, the United Nations Security
Council (“UNSC”), acting under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United
Nations, adopted Resolution 1988 (2011) concerning the situation in Afghanistan which still constitutes a threat to international peace and security.

(2)
On [...] 2011, the Council of the European Union
adopted Council Decision 2011/[...]/CFSP which provides for the freezing of funds
and economic resources of, restrictions on the admission to the EU of,
prohibition on the direct and indirect supply, sale or transfer, of weapons and
military equipment to, and prohibition on the provision of related assistance
and services to, persons, groups and undertakings listed either by the
Committee established by UNSC Resolution 1988 (2011), or prior to the adoption
of that Resolution, by the Committee established by UNSC Resolutions 1267
(1999) and 1333 (2000).

(3)
Some of these measures fall within the scope of
the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and, therefore, notably
with a view to ensuring their uniform application by economic operators in all
Member States, regulatory action at the level of the Union is necessary in
order to implement them.

(4)
This Regulation respects the fundamental rights
and observes the principles recognised in particular by the Charter of
Fundamental Rights of the European Union and notably the right to an effective
remedy and to a fair trial and the right to the protection of personal data.
This Regulation should be applied in accordance with those rights.

(5)
Article 291(2) TFEU provides that, where uniform
conditions for implementing legally binding Union acts such as Regulations
based on Article 215 TFEU are needed, those acts shall confer implementing
powers on the Commission.

(6)
The procedure for amending the list in Annex I to
this Regulation should include providing natural or legal persons, groups, undertakings and entities concerned
with the reasons for their listing, so as to give them an opportunity to submit
observations. Where observations are submitted, or substantial new evidence is
presented, the Commission should review its decision on Annex I in light of
those observations and inform the person, group,
undertaking or entity concerned accordingly.

(7)
The same procedure should apply as regards persons,
groups, undertakings and entities included in Annex I
at the date of adoption of this Regulation.

(8)
This Regulation also fully respects the obligations
of Member States under the Charter of the United Nations and the legally
binding nature of UN Security Council Resolutions.

(9)
For the implementation of this Regulation, and
in order to create maximum legal certainty within the Union, the names and
other relevant data concerning natural and legal persons, groups, undertakings
and entities whose funds and economic resources must be frozen in accordance
with this Regulation, must be made public. Any processing of personal data
should respect Regulation (EC) No 45/2001 of the European Parliament and of the
Council of 18 December 2000 on the protection of individuals with regard to the
processing of personal data by the Community institutions and bodies and on the
free movement of such data[1] and Directive 95/46/EC of
the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection
of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free
movement of such data[2].

(10)
In order to ensure that the measures provided
for in this Regulation are effective, this Regulation must enter into force
immediately,

on the part of the natural or legal person or entity or body implementing it,
