REGULATORY IMPACT
ANALYSIS STATEMENT

(This statement is not part of the Regulations.)

Description

The Regulations Amending the United Nations Suppression of Terrorism Regulations (the "Regulations") were made to further implement United Nations Security Council Resolution 1373 (2001) calling on UN member states to adopt specific measures to combat terrorism. The Regulations add to the schedule established pursuant to the United Nations Suppression of Terrorism Regulations the names of individuals and entities which there are reasonable grounds to believe are involved in or associated with terrorist activities.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs may issue a certificate pursuant to section 11 of the United Nations Suppression of Terrorism Regulations to a person who wishes to do, or omit to do, any act or thing that may be prohibited under these Regulations. Such a certificate may be issued if the Minister has reasonable grounds to believe that Security Council Resolution 1373 does not intend that the act or thing be prohibited, or the act or thing has been approved by the Security Council of the United Nations or by the Committee of the Security Council established pursuant to Resolution 1373, or if the person named in the certificate is not a listed person.

Alternatives

The United Nations Act is the appropriate legislative authority to implement these measures.

Benefits and Costs

The search and report requirements contained in the United Nations Suppression of Terrorism Regulations will require action by financial institutions in Canada, including foreign insurance companies operating in Canada, that may result in costs.

Consultation

The Departments of Justice, Finance and of the Solicitor General were consulted.

Compliance and Enforcement

Compliance is ensured by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Every person who contravenes provisions of the United Nations Suppression of Terrorism Regulations is liable, upon conviction, to the punishments set out in section 9.
