January 5, 2016: Remember that threadbare HMT Central African Republic sanctions update?

Remember that HMT told you they were short-staffed during the holiday, then issued a notice that an update would be forthcoming for the Central African Republic sanctions program, providing only a link to the EU legislation?

Well, yesterday it arrived in full – HMT implemented Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 2015/2454 by adding the following 2 individuals to the Consolidated List:
