COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 488/2013

of 27 May 2013

amending Regulation (EU) No 204/2011 concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Libya

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 215 thereof,

Having regard to Council Decision 2011/137/CFSP of 28 February 2011 concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Libya (1),

Having regard to the joint proposal from the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the European Commission,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Council Regulation (EU) No 204/2011 of 2 March 2011 concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Libya (2) gives effect to the measures provided for in Decision 2011/137/CFSP.
 

(2)

Council Decision 2013/45/CFSP of 22 January 2013 (3) amends Decision 2011/137/CFSP in order to permit the release of certain frozen funds or economic resources where they are required to respond to a judicial or administrative decision delivered in the Union, or a judicial decision enforceable in a Member State.
 

(3)

Council Decision 2013/182/CFSP of 22 April 2013 (4) amends Decision 2011/137/CFSP in accordance with Resolution 2095 (2013) of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) which amends the exemptions to the arms embargo set out in paragraph 9(a) of Resolution 1970 (2011) of the UNSC and paragraph 13(a) of Resolution 2009(2011) of the UNSC.
 

(4)

Certain of those measures fall within the scope of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and regulatory action at Union level is therefore necessary in order to implement them, in particular with a view to ensuring their uniform application by economic operators in all Member States.
 

(5)

Regulation (EU) No 204/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
