All chemical weapons production capacity must be inactivated and subsequently destroyed or converted for peaceful purposes, subject to stringent verification by the OPCW.

This may comprise hardware or software that is designed to protect the sensitive information, while providing access to a meaningful subset for verification purposes.

For the purposes of verification which was essential if non nuclear weapon States were to be assured that nuclear weapons had actually been destroyed it would be appropriate to extend the verification provisions of the Start I Treaty beyond 2009.

As an independent and objective verification body, IAEA played a crucial role by ensuring that nuclear activities were not misused for military or illicit purposes.

The United Kingdom's working paper submitted to the 2004 Preparatory Committee discussed some of the issues, vulnerabilities and practicalities in carrying out such inspections for verification purposes.

The vast distances of space, the sophisticated technologies of space systems and the difficulty of differentiating between systems used for both civilian and military purposes can make verification complex.

We urge all nuclear weapon States to conclude and to implement arrangements to place their fissile material, designated as no longer required for military purposes, under the IAEA verification regime.

Verification

Welcoming also the efforts of several States to cooperate in making nuclear disarmament measures irreversible, in particular through the adoption of initiatives on the verification, management and disposition of fissile material declared excess to military purposes,

Arrangements by all nuclear weapon States to place, as soon as practicable, fissile material designated by each of them as no longer required for military purposes under IAEA or other relevant international verification and arrangements for the disposition of such material for peaceful purposes, to ensure that such material remains permanently outside military programmes.

For a viable verification regime, suitable and sufficient verification evidence needs to be available.

In conclusion, my delegation reaffirms its full support for the indispensable role of the Agency in facilitating the development and practical application of atomic energy for peaceful purposes, in technology transfer to the developing countries and in nuclear safety, verification and security.

And then I asked for verification.

And there's a verification taking place.
