# Council Decision 2012/662/CFSP of 25 October 2012 in support of activities to reduce the risk of illicit trade in, and excessive accumulation of, Small Arms and Light Weapons in the region covered by the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), Division 2.3.2: Description of the project

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

Destruction of up to 12 000 surplus pieces of SALW in Belarus;
Destruction of up to 2 000 surplus pieces of SALW and up to 51 Man-portable air-defence systems (MANPADS) in Kyrgyzstan.
The Governments of Belarus and Kyrgyzstan will provide support to the project through provision of facilities and equipment, and in-kind contribution, as appropriate. All activities except those related to upgrades of SALW storage sites in Belarus will be implemented by the OSCE Secretariat.
In Belarus, the activities related to upgrades of SALW storage sites will be implemented by the UNDP Belarus Office because the OSCE does not have an appropriate representation and legal status in Belarus and also because the implementation of this part of the project by the UNDP Office Belarus is more cost-effective in comparison to a Vienna-based project management by the OSCE. The role of the OSCE in the overall project coordination and implementation oversight related to the selection of storage sites and safety and security measures to be implemented, annual work plans, quality control of completed works and the national contribution of the government of Belarus will remain.
