Anti-Terrorism and Non Proliferation (United Nations Security Council Resolutions Implementation) Regulations, 2024 (Statutory Instrument No. 1 of 2024)
The regulations outline measures to implement targeted financial sanctions in line with United Nations Security Council resolutions related to combating terrorism and non-proliferation. Specifically, they revise the functions of the National Centre for the Prevention of Terrorism, rename the office of the Director to Director-General, and incorporate offences related to nuclear materials under international conventions. They provide updated definitions and penalties for offences such as terrorism, proliferation, and financing of such activities. The regulations also seek to strengthen provisions for detecting, preventing, and prosecuting terrorism-related activities and address the handling and regulation of frozen assets, provide for delisting processes, and ensure compliance with international standards on counterterrorism. They mandate stricter controls on the use, transport, and proliferation of weapons, including chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear materials.
