Miscellaneous 28 1 Any provision of this Order which prohibits the doing of an act except under the authority of a licence granted by the Governor shall not have effect in relation to any such act done anywhere other than the Territory, provided it is duly authorised. 2 An act is duly authorised for the purposes of paragraph (1) if— a it is done under the authority of a licence granted in accordance with any law in force in the place where it is done (and that law substantially corresponds to the relevant provisions of this Order); and b that licence is granted by the authority competent in that behalf under that law. Liability 29 No liability will arise for any person concerned in the freezing of funds or economic resources in accordance with article 14 unless it is proved that the funds or economic resources were frozen or withheld as a result of negligence. Savings 30 Any licence which was granted by the Governor under article 7 of the Al-Qa’ida and Taliban (United Nations Measures) (Overseas Territories) Order 2002 in respect of a designated person and which was in effect immediately before the coming into force of this Order shall have effect as if it were a licence granted by the Governor under article 20 of this Order. Richard Tilbrook Clerk of the Privy Council
