In Council Decision 2010/232/CFSP (1), the Council of the European Union identified those persons, entities and bodies against whom restrictive measures are to apply, as set out in Annexes II and III of that Decision, having determined that:

(a)

individual members of the Government of Burma/Myanmar; or

(b)

natural or legal persons, entities or bodies associated with them,

as referred to in Articles 9(1) and 10(1) of Council Decision 2010/232/CFSP; and

2.

the legal persons, entities and bodies listed in Annex III of Decision 2010/232/CFSP are:

(a)

enterprises owned or controlled by the Government of Burma/Myanmar or public bodies, corporations, including companies established under private law in which the public authorities have a majority stake, and agencies of that State;

Consequently the Commission has, pursuant to Article 18(1)(b) of Council Regulation (EC) No 194/2008 (2), adopted Commission Regulation (EU) No 411/2010 (3) which amends Annexes VI and VII to Regulation (EC) No 194/2008.

2.

a prohibition on new investment in the enterprises, legal persons, entities or bodies listed in Annex VII.

The attention of the persons, entities and bodies listed in Annex VI is drawn to the possibility of making an application to the competent authorities of the relevant Member State(s) as indicated in the websites listed in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 194/2008 in order to obtain an authorisation to use frozen funds for essential needs or specific payments in accordance with Article 13 of that Regulation.

The persons, entities and bodies on the lists in Council Regulation (EC) No 194/2008 as amended by Commission Regulation (EU) No 411/2010 may submit at any time a request to the Council of the European Union, together with any supporting documentation, for the decision to include and/or maintain them on the lists referred to above to be reconsidered.
