National Security Act 2023 (Foreign Activities and Foreign Influence Registration Scheme: Exemptions for Certain Foreign Power Investment Funds, Education, Government Administration and Public Bodies) Regulations 2025Contribution
Secondly—my noble friend probably expects me to raise this matter—can we look again at the full proscription of the IRGC? The effect of full proscription is open to debate. The actual effect would certainly not be a magic wand, but nevertheless it would send a signal to the regime in Tehran and the people who run the IRGC. I welcome these SIs and think that we are being entirely serious, but such action would underline the seriousness with which the British Government approach the IRGC and the proxies who carry out its evil ends.
