Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This legal document removes targeted sanctions that were previously imposed on specific individuals and entities from Burma (Myanmar).

Under Australia's autonomous sanctions framework (financial restrictions and travel bans imposed independently of the United Nations), the Minister for Foreign Affairs is cancelling two previous lists that had designated certain Burmese persons as sanctions targets:

The Autonomous Sanctions (Designated and Declared Persons – Burma) List 2012
The Autonomous Sanctions (Designated and Declared Persons – Burma) Amendment List 2012 (No. 1)

By revoking (cancelling) these lists, the restrictions that applied to the named individuals and entities—such as asset freezes and travel bans—are lifted.
