# Council Decision 2010/585/CFSP of 27 September 2010 on support for IAEA activities in the areas of nuclear security and verification and in the framework of the implementation of the EU Strategy against Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction, Division: Purpose

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

A comprehensive evaluation will be carried out by the IAEA to identify needs to strengthen measures that contribute to the effectiveness of nuclear security in the above listed States. The evaluation will be performed against the international nuclear security framework, including binding and non-binding international legal instruments and related IAEA guidance. Where States have been considered for support under previous Joint Actions and other Union’s contributions, the evaluation carried out earlier will be updated.
The evaluation will cover, as appropriate, the overall national nuclear security system, including the legal and regulatory system, physical protection and accounting or registry of materials and security measures implemented at facilities, locations or transports. Arrangements made to establish effective border control and other arrangements to deal with nuclear and radioactive material out of regulatory control will be included in the evaluation. The results of the overall evaluation will be used as the basis for selecting States in which projects will be implemented.
