VERTIC participates in CITS CARICOM workshop: legislative gap analysis vis-a-vis UNSCR 1540 |
VERTIC NIM Programme Staff - Scott Spence and Rocio Escauriaza Leal - participated in the CITS CARICOM workshop on Legislative Gap Analysis vis-a-vis UNSCR 1540: Status of Regulatory Framework in the Caribbean Community. The event took place in New York during 22-23 September. The objective of the workshop was to discuss the results of the CITS review of the national legal bases for strategic trade controls in each of the 15 CARICOM member states, with a view to identifying regulatory gaps. VERTIC contributed to the workshop with a presentation on legislation for the prohibition and prevention of WMD proliferation as well as with the handover of legislative analyses for each country, in relation to the BWC and BW-related provisions of UNSCR 1540. All laws and regulations identified for these legislative analyses have been posted on VERTIC's BWC Legislation Database.
