<p>In preparation for no deal, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) has laid
Statutory Instruments (SIs) relating to sanctions, the Kimberley Process and the Overseas
Territories, under the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act (2018) and EU Withdrawal
Act (2018). On sanctions, the FCO decided to lay Regulations before exit for those
regimes with particular UK interests and where the EU's designations might change
after exit. It was decided that it was not necessary to have a full domestic SI in
place for other regimes for exit day, because it was possible to rely on retained
EU law for a period.</p>
