  • This bill, called the Sergei Magnitsky Law, seeks to amend the Justice for Victims of Corrupt Foreign Officials Act. The amendments in this bill include allowing the government to restrict or prohibit certain activities in relation to family members of foreign nationals who are responsible for gross violations of internationally recognized human rights. It also allows the government to order the seizure, freezing, or sequestration of the property of these family members if it is believed to have been given to them to impede the enforcement of the Act. Additionally, the bill allows the government to order certain entities to provide information necessary for the enforcement of the Act. Parliament would also have the power to amend or revoke certain orders or regulations made under the Act by motion. Lastly, the Minister of Foreign Affairs would be required to report annually to Parliament on actions taken under the Act, resources committ
