Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Com-
munity, and in particular Articles 60 and 301 thereof,

Having regard to Common Position 2003/495/CFSP on Iraq
and repealing Common Positions 1996/741/CFSP and 2002/
599/CFSP (1),

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

Further to United Nations Security Council Resolution
661 (1990) and subsequent relevant Resolutions,
in
particular Resolution 986 (1995), the Council imposed a
comprehensive
embargo on trade with Iraq. This
embargo is at present laid down in Council Regulation
(EC) No 2465/96 of 17 December 1996 concerning the
interruption of economic and financial relations between
the European Community and Iraq (2).

In its Resolution 1483 (2003) of 22 May 2003, the
Security Council decided that, with certain exceptions,
all prohibitions related to trade with Iraq and the provi-
sion of financial or economic resources to Iraq should
no longer apply.

(3) With the exception of a ban on exports of arms and
related materiel to Iraq, the Resolution provides that the
comprehensive restrictions concerning trade should be
repealed and replaced with specific restrictions applying
to proceeds from all export sales of petroleum, petro-
leum products, and natural gas from Iraq, and to trade
in goods belonging to Iraq's cultural heritage with the
objective of facilitating the safe return of those goods.

economic resources,
in particular those belonging to
former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and senior offi-
cials of his regime, should be frozen, subject to designa-
tion by the Committee of the Security Council estab-
lished pursuant
to paragraph 6 of Resolution 661
(1990), and that such funds should subsequently be
transferred to the Development Fund for Iraq.

In order to allow the Member States to effect the transfer
of frozen funds, economic resources and proceeds of
economic resources to the Development Fund for Iraq,
provision should be made for such funds and economic
resources to be unfrozen.

reconstruction of Iraq and the restructuring of its debt,

and security constituted by the current situation in Iraq

Iraq. This

Common Position 2003/495/CFSP makes provision for
an amendment of the current Community regime in
order to align it with UNSC Resolution 1483 (2003).

These measures fall under the scope of the Treaty and,
therefore, in particular with a view to avoiding distortion
of competition, Community legislation is necessary to
implement the relevant decisions of the Security Council
as far as the territory of the Community is concerned.
For the purposes of this Regulation, the territory of the
Community is deemed to encompass the territories of
the Member States to which the Treaty is applicable,
under the conditions laid down in that Treaty.

In order to create maximum legal certainty within the
Community, the names and other relevant data relating
to natural or legal persons, groups or entities identified
by the UN authorities whose funds and economic
resources are to be frozen, should be published and a
procedure established within the Community to amend
these lists.

(10)

For reasons of expediency, the Commission should be
empowered to amend the Annexes to this Regulation
setting out the list of cultural goods, the lists of persons,
bodies and entities, whose funds and economic resources
are to be frozen, and the list of competent authorities.

(11)

The competent authorities of the Member States should,
where necessary, be empowered to ensure compliance
with the provisions of this Regulation.

(12)

The Commission and Member States should inform each
other of the measures taken under this Regulation and
of other relevant information at their disposal in connec-
tion with this Regulation, and should cooperate with the
Committee established by UNSC Resolution 661 (1990),
in particular by supplying it with information.

Since the comprehensive trade measures of Regulation
(EC) No 2465/96 are being replaced by the specific trade
restrictions of
this Regulation, and this Regulation
imposes freezing measures which require immediate
application by economic operators,
it is necessary to
ensure that sanctions for breaches of this Regulation can
be imposed as soon as it enters into force.

For the sake of clarity, Regulation (EC) No 2465/96
should be repealed in its entirety.

Council Regulation (EEC) No 3541/92 of 7 December
1992 prohibiting the satisfying of
Iraqi claims with
regard to contracts and transactions, the performance of
which was affected by United Nations Security Council
Resolution 661 (1990) and related resolutions (1) should

for Iraq held by the Central Bank of Iraq.

Article 2

All proceeds from all export sales of petroleum, petroleum
products, and natural gas from Iraq, as listed in Annex I, as of
22 May 2003 shall be deposited into the Development Fund
for Iraq under the conditions set out in UNSC Resolution 1483
