  "text": "In coordination with UNREC, UNMAS experts and MAG experts will carry out immediate interventions where required. After this initial Action, the assessed depots (armouries and ammunition depots) will be rehabilitated in accordance with ISACS and IATG, in order to secure government-owned stockpiles from diversion, theft and attacks. The plans and documents prepared for the rehabilitation will be developed as model documentation for the rehabilitation and construction of other armouries and ammunition depots. The extent of the intervention and considerations for rehabilitation or construction in each pilot site will be based on the results of the assessment.\nUNREC will work with national authorities so that SALW that are stocked in the depots are marked and registered in accordance with ISACS, using existing capacities in the subregion. UNREC will also develop an accurate and comprehensive system for the management of weapons and ammunition storage depots, which responds to the needs of the countries concerned, takes into account existing systems and avoids duplication of ongoing efforts. This activity will allow for a reliable assessment of conventional weapons and ammunition types, their registration and transparency, taking into account the existing information technology infrastructure, ensuring compatibility with INTERPOL's iARMS and allowing for interoperability between the countries. This will facilitate cross-border cooperation in arms tracing and preventing the illicit trade of SALW.\nThe SALW marking, registration and stockpile management will build on recent and current SALW marking activities in the subregion funded under Decision 2011/428/CFSP and through the EU's Instrument contributing to Stability and Peace. It will benefit from UNREC experience in conducting similar activities in post-conflict countries in the subregion.",
