In accordance with that Resolution, on 4 April 2016 the Sanctions Committee established pursuant to UNSCR 1718 (2006) published a list of additional goods to which prohibitions on the transfer, procurement and provision of technical assistance apply (the ‘sensitive goods’ list).

(3) Following the adoption of Resolution (UNSCR) 2270 (2016), on 4 August 2016 the Council adopted Decision (CFSP) 2016/1341. Council Regulation (EU) 2016/1333 amended Regulation (EC) No 329/2007 accordingly, adding Annex Ig.

(4) This proposal identifies the sensitive goods to be included in Annex Ig of Regulation (EC) No 329/2007 and allocates the reference numbers taken from the Combined Nomenclature as set out in Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87. Annex Ig of Regulation (EC) No 329/2007 should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1 
Annex Ig to Regulation (EC) No 329/2007 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2 
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
