star this property answer text <p>The Common Framework, agreed between the G20 and the Paris Club, represents the first time that all G20 creditors and the Paris Club have committed to work together to coordinate debt treatments. The Framework is intended to deliver a longer-term, more sustainable approach to dealing with debt vulnerabilities for countries that request it. Progress in implementing the Common Framework has been a regular feature in the Chancellor’s discussions in the G20 and in its February 2022 communique, the G20 reiterated its commitment to step up efforts to implement the Framework in a timely, orderly and coordinated manner.</p><p> </p><p>Zambia is one of three countries – along with Chad and Ethiopia - to have requested the Common Framework. Zambia reached a Staff-Level Agreement with the IMF in December, marking a step forward. At Spring Meetings, the IMF managing director indicated that China had agreed to join the creditor committee for Zambia. As a creditor to Zambia, it is a priority to work with our G20 partners to ensure swift progress on the debt treatment.</p>

star this property answer text <p>Zambia is one of three countries to have requested a debt treatment under the Common Framework. The Common Framework was agreed in November 2020 by the UK, along with the G20 and Paris Club, to help deliver a long-term, sustainable approach for supporting low-income countries to tackle their debt vulnerabilities.</p><p> </p><p>Private sector participation in the Common Framework is critical. Under the terms of the Common Framework, a debtor country that signs an MoU with participating official creditors will be required to seek from all private creditors a treatment at least as favourable. Accordingly, once Zambia signs an MoU for its case it will need to engage its private creditors to ensure their participation on comparable terms.</p><p>The Government routinely engages private sector creditors on international debt issues in a number of fora and will work closely with its international partners to ensure private creditors fully play their part in Zambia’s restructuring.</p><p> </p>

OFSI has not considered it appropriate for the Treasury to effectively decide on whether a case has sufficient merit to be permitted to proceed by deciding whether to license legal fees. Rather, OFSI's position has been that the merits should be decided by the appropriate court. OFSI assesses cases on a costs-basis only, ensuring that the fees requested are reasonable in accordance with the derogations available under the sanctions regimes.</p><p> </p><p>We need to carefully balance the right to legal representation - which is a fundamental one - with wider issues, including the aim and purpose of the sanctions. It is right therefore that Ministers are examining whether there are any changes that can be made to this policy.</p>
