Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

These regulations repeal Australia’s sanctions regime targeting Angola — canceling the 1994 Charter of the United Nations (Sanctions — Angola) Regulations and related updates, and removing cross‑references in criminal code rules.

The change frees Australian individuals, companies, and banks from the specific trade and financial bans that had applied to Angola, formally ending Australia’s legal enforcement of those UN‑linked sanctions now deemed no longer necessary.
