HMG is exploring what options there may be to use sanctioned assets, including real estate. The Secretary of State for the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, has committed to exploring an option that would allow the use of homes and properties of sanctioned individuals for as long as they are sanctioned, for humanitarian and other purposes.
