SIPRI Yearbook 2012
V. Developments in the Nuclear Suppliers Group
Many of the states that produce items that can be used in weapon of mass destruction (WMD) programmes cooperate on strategic trade controls in informal, non-legally binding, multilateral trade-control regimes with limited memberships.1 In the case of nuclear material, equipment and technology, the relevant regime is the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG).2 Its 46 participating states, along with the European Commission and the chair of the Zangger Committee as permanent observers, meet annually in a consensus-based, decision-making plenary in addition to intersessional preparatory and technical meetings.3
