Recommendation 11

We encourage the Government to consider a standing exemption for relevant humanitarian organisations to ensure that they do not risk liability for their legitimate dealings with sanctioned entities. In the meantime, the Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI) must provide clearer guidance for the humanitarian sector on the interpretation of sanctions legislation. At the international level, the Government should facilitate consistent good practice with regard to creating humanitarian exemptions to sanctions regimes. (Recommendation, Paragraph 29)
