What UN Sanctions are we waiting on?

What sanctions are we talking about when someone says Iraq needs to be release from UN Sanctions?

Lifting of Sanctions

Following the 2003 Iraq War, the sanctions regime was largely ended on May 22, 2003 (with certain exceptions related to arms and to oil revenue) by paragraph 10 of UN Security Council Resolution 1483.

Sanctions which gave the US and UK control over Iraq's oil revenue were not removed until December 2010.[2] Sanctions which require 5% of Iraq's oil and natural gas revenue to be paid to Kuwait as reparations for Saddam Hussain's invasion are still in effect

Do you think this is what they are waiting on? I don't. Stories I have read here say it's been paid plus I doubt they are holding up an RV because of 5% of revenue.

I read those same story's and I don't think so either.
