yes / Efforts to combat and prevent illicit trafficking in, and proliferation and misuse of, small arms
and light weapons (SALW) are hampered by lack of relevant information-exchange and
transparency. International information exchange and transparency arrangements are key
elements of each of the main elements of the international action programme on SALW to be
launched at the UN 2001 Conference.
There is great scope to develop information management and distribution arrangements to
disseminate and exchange of relevant information on SALW without seriously compromising
national security, necessary commercial secrecy, or law enforcement. Indeed, national security,
commerce, crime prevention and law enforcement are generally enhanced by appropriate
transparency and information exchange
