The document is a communication regarding the proposed nuclear-related dual-use export control regime. It states that a working group established by the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) reached an agreement on draft texts for guidelines, an annex listing controlled items, and a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for implementing the regime. The texts represent a compromise and include provisions for denial notification and control over membership. The intention is for the proposed texts to be formally adopted in April, followed by an exchange of acceptance between participating countries. The regime aims to prevent further nuclear proliferation and deserves strong support. The sender expects confirmation of support from the recipients, Alan Clark and Colin Moynihan.
