   amending for the 241st time Council Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 imposing certain specific restrictive measures directed against certain persons and entities associated with the Al Qaida network
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 of 27 May 2002 imposing certain specific restrictive measures directed against certain persons and entities associated with the Al-Qaida network (1), and in particular Article 7(1)(a) and Article 7a(5) thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 lists the persons, groups and entities covered by the freezing of funds and economic resources under that Regulation.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               On 30 December 2015 the Sanctions Committee of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) decided to amend one entry of the list of persons, groups and entities to whom the freezing of funds and economic resources should apply. On 7 January 2016 Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 was amended for the 240th time. Further amendments need to be made to update some of these entries. Moreover on 11 January 2016 the UNSC decided to delist one entry of that list. Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 should therefore be amended accordingly.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               In order to ensure that the measures provided for in this Regulation are effective, this Regulation should enter into force immediately,
