Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT)Open for Signature: 1968 Entry into force: 1970
Non-Nuclear Weapon States• Full access to peaceful uses of
nuclear energy in return for nuclear weapon abstinence
• Safeguards to prevent diversion from peaceful uses
• Security assurances
Nuclear Weapon States• Commitment to nuclear
disarmament

• The NPT establishes a safeguards system under the responsibility of the IAEA
• When NPT entered into force the IAEA began to implement safeguards measures in line with Article III of the treaty
NPT and IAEA safeguards

• To seek to accelerate and enlarge the contribution of nuclear energy to peace, health and prosperity; and ensure that assistance is not used in a way that furthers any military purpose
• The IAEA pursues the non-proliferation element of its work through the implementation of a set of technical measures, or “safeguards”
IAEA: Purpose of safeguards

• Safeguards serve as important confidence building measures
• Help to ensure that nuclear material and technology and used only for peaceful purposes
• Aim to prevent diversion and misuse• Without safeguards, there would be far less
nuclear cooperation and transfer of technology

• Focused on declared facilities and verifying correctness of State declarations
• Limited detection possibilities of undeclared activities elsewhere in State
• Lack of complete State picture necessary to verify completeness of State declarations

• Nuclear weapon related activities in Iraq and DPRK demonstrated inadequacies of safeguards implementation
• Need for strengthening measures under existing legal authority
• But also need for additional authority to address possible undeclared nuclear material and activities

The IAEA now has wider access to, and more information on, Iran’s nuclear programme

• Verification and Monitoring of: UOC production and inventory Heavy water production and inventory Sensitive centrifuge component manufacturing Enrichment R&D activities
• Provisional Implementation of the AP Enables IAEA to conduct Complementary Access More detail in Iran’s 2.a.(x) declaration
• Reduced scope and scale of Iran’s nuclear programme: Enables IAEA to focus on remaining activities
JCPOA is a gain for Safeguards

Some of the challenges we met with the JPA and JCPOA:
Verifying UF6 enrichment levels in real time inside Iran required a new tool: the on-line enrichment monitor.
Measuring the production & inventory of heavy water rarely been done previously by the Agency.
Centrifuge R&D & manufacturing, remote monitoring, etc.: innovative and robust solutions were needed.
Putting together a realistic budget & HR estimate; start implementing before sufficient funding secured
