<p>In February the UK Government published two General Licences to facilitate earthquake relief efforts in Syria and Turkey. These built on an existing humanitarian exception for UK-funded persons by simplifying licensing for those conducting earthquake relief efforts. The UK will continue to monitor the situation in Syria through regular engagement with Non-Governmental Organisations and financial institutions and is committed to minimising any unintended consequences of sanctions, including through using our humanitarian licensing grounds where appropriate.</p>
