| Summary |
The diversion of conventional arms can occur at any stage in the transfer chain, adversely affecting security, stability, and sustainable development. Preventing the diversion of conventional arms is a key objective of the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT). In 2018 the ATT Working Group on Effective Treaty Implementation (WGETI) compiled a paper listing 'possible measures to prevent and address diversion'. While diversion often occurs in the importing state, the ATT WGETI provides only a limited number of measures that can be taken to prevent and address such diversion. A comparison of the ATT WGETI paper and African small arms control instruments identifies significant overlaps, but also notable differences. African initial reports on measures to implement the ATT do not include information on national measures to prevent and address diversion in importing states |
