answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/01/2020 answer text <p>​We have long expressed our deep concerns about the destabilising activities of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and IRGC Qods Force, including illicit economic activity, and support to militant and proscribed groups around the region. The IRGC as a whole remains subject to EU and UN sanctions; a large number of associated individuals and entities are also designated. We continue to review the list of proscribed groups, but do not routinely comment on consideration of specific organisations.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 29/01/2020 14:01:50 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
