National Authority responsible for implementing the 1993 Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC). National authorities serve as national focal points for liaison with the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) and other CWC states parties. The tasks of a national authority will depend on the nature and extent of the obligations that the convention imposes on a states party. All states parties, acting through their national authority, are required to fulfil certain common obligations. These include the preparation and submission of declarations to the OPCW, the enactment of legislation to aid implementation of the convention and the facilitation of OPCW inspections.
