  "text": "The implementation of this Council Decision is entrusted to BAFA. Where appropriate, BAFA will partner with Member States' export control agencies, relevant regional and international organisations, think tanks, research institutes and NGOs.\nBAFA has leading experience in the provision of export control assistance and outreach activities. It has developed such experience in all the relevant fields of strategic export control, addressing the CBRN-related, dual-use goods and arms areas. Through those programmes and activities, BAFA has gained in-depth knowledge of the export control systems of most of the countries covered by the present Decision.\nWith regard to arms export control assistance and outreach, BAFA successfully completed the implementation of Decisions 2009/1012/CFSP and 2012/711/CFSP and Decision (CFSP) 2015/2309. BAFA is also in charge of the technical implementation of the ATT implementation support programme established by Decision 2013/768/CFSP and Decision (CFSP) 2017/915.\nThe overall effect is that BAFA is uniquely placed to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the export control systems of countries that will be the beneficiaries of the activities provided for in this Decision. It is thus most able to facilitate synergies between the various arms export control assistance and outreach programmes and to avoid duplication.",
