    FOR THE 37TH EXECUTIVE COUNCIL, JUNE 29-JULY 2

    This is CWC-72-04.

    -------
    SUMMARY
    -------

    ¶1.  (SBU)  There are two specific set of decisions which are
    the highest priorities at this EC.  The first set of issues
    is time-sensitive and involves amendments to the Working
    Capital Fund and the Financial Regulations.  These draft
    decisions will give the OPCW a much greater financial cushion
    and greater leeway in replenishment of that fund.  Should
    these resolutions not be adopted in June, the next
    opportunity for a decision will be the October EC, which
    could generate difficulties for the OPCW depending on the
    state of finances.  The second set of issues involves the
    requests from Libya and Albania for extension of their
    destruction deadlines.  These may not be so acutely
    time-sensitive, but are politically important and adoption in
    June would send an important message to the countries
    involved about the OPCW's responsiveness and ability to take
    action.  The concerns of some countries (particularly France
    and Germany) on "in principle" extensions cast some doubts on
    whether these will be adopted at the J
    une EC, but the onus will lie on them to block consensus on
    extension requests which are generally supported.

    ¶2.  (SBU)  With regard to the Libyan conversion request on
    Rabta, a substantial amount of spade-work will need to be
    done in the run-up to the EC and at the EC itself in order to
    assuage the concerns of other delegations.  While the
    conversion request likely will not be adopted in June, it
    will be important to do the lobbying necessary to ensure its
    adoption in October.  On the industry side, following the
    numerous decisions adopted at the March EC, there appears to
    have been insufficient time to prepare decision documents for
    this EC.  But the proposed draft opening statement by the
    Ambassador (provided by E-mail to AC/CB) will emphasize that
    it is critical that we use the time before the October EC to
    complete work on a number of important topics, such as late
    declarations and transfer discrepancy clarifications.

    -----
    LIBYA
    -----

    ¶3.  (SBU) We have reported septel on the status of
    discussions with other delegations on the Libyan extension
    request and the conversion request for Rabta.

    -------
    ALBANIA
    -------

    ¶4.  (SBU)  As in the case of Libya, there appears to be a
    general desire among delegations to accommodate the needs of
    the Albanians.  The problem that has arisen is the reluctance
    of France and Germany in particular to accept "in principle"
    extensions of the destruction deadlines.  Such concerns had
    been raised last year with regard to U.S. and Russian
    extension requests.  However, the acceptance of "in
    principle" extensions for the U.S. and Russia makes it
    difficult for delegations to raise an objection to their use
    with regard to Albania.  We certainly anticipate that France
    and Germany will repeat this refrain up to the EC.  Whether
    they will actually take the step of breaking consensus on
    this issue is another matter, especially if there is an
    overwhelming desire to accommodate Tirana.  A related issue
    has been the initiative of some countries to push for site
    visits in connection with these extension requests.  While
    such visits are of dubious value and the decision of whether
    to accept them would ultimately rest with the Libyans and
    Albanians themselves, the issue could delay adoption of the
    Albanian extension request if some, in particular Germany and
    France, insist upon having visits included as part of the
    decision documents (EC-37/DEC/CRP.5, 28 May 2004).

    ----------------
    FINANCIAL ISSUES
    ----------------

    ¶5.  (U)  Working Capital Fund:  Under the facilitation of
    Johan Verboom (Netherlands), agreement has been reached on a
    draft decision document increasing the level of the WCF to
    9.9 million Euros.  In addition, the proposed change will
    extend to the following calendar year the period within which
    any funds taken by the TS from the WCF must be put back into
    the WCF.  At Germany's insistence, the mechanism for
    increasing the funds in the WCF has been done in accordance
    with the Financial Regulations.  Due to the complexities of
    this action, the facilitator provided an accompanying
    explanatory sheet, and has scheduled a June 21 consultation
    to ensure that any objections from member states will be
    addressed before the EC convenes.  Washington supports the
    draft decision document, and it is likely the U.S. will have
    to do a lot of work in the run-up to the EC and at the EC
    itself to ensure the draft decision is adopted.

    ¶6.  (U)  Financial Regulations:  In what became an
    accompanying facilitation, Peter van Brakel (Canada) worked
    to update a number of financial regulations.  Most critical
    to the U.S. was the effort to formalize a "schedule" for
    payment of Article IV/V invoices.  It had become clear that
    many delegations viewed this as a package deal: while the WCF
    would be increased to cover cash-flow problems, it was
    important to have greater certainty regarding the Article
    IV/V payments by possessor states.  Once again, Washington
    supports the draft decision document, and it will be
    important to press for adoption of the two parts of the
    package at the EC.

    ¶7.  (U) As for the rest of the EC-37 session, the following
    items are addressed as included on the annotated agenda
    (EC-37/INF.2, dated May 7 2004):

    -------------------------------
    AGENDA ITEM THREE: DG STATEMENT
    -------------------------------

    ¶8.  (U)  We will provide the text of the DG's statement when
    it becomes available.

    ---------------------------------

    ¶9.  (U)  We will provide a draft statement for Ambassador
    Javits to AC/CB for Washington's consideration.

    --------------------------------------------- ----
    AGENDA ITEM FIVE: STATUS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CONVENTION
    --------------------------------------------- ----

    ¶10.  (SBU) The council is requested to consider under agenda
    item 5.1 the 2003 verification implementation report
    (EC-37/HP/DG.1, dated 28 April 2004).  One set of
    consultations were held on the report.

    ¶11.  (SBU) A report from the DG on the status of
    implementation of Articles X and XI is noted under 5.2
    (EC-37/DG.7, 24 May 2004 and corrigendum EC-37/DG.7/Corr.1, 7
    June 2004).

    ------------------------------------------

    -------------------------------------------

    ¶13.  (SBU)  See septel.

    --------------------------------------------- ----
    AGENDA ITEM EIGHT: DETAILED PLANS FOR DESTRUCTION
    --------------------------------------------- ----

    ¶14.  (U)  The U.S. detailed plans for Aberdeen and Dugway are
    addressed under this item.  Item 8.1 concerns Aberdeen
    (EC-32/DEC/CRP.2, dated 14 February 2003) and 8.2 covers
    Dugway (EC-36/DEC/CRP.11, dated 3 March 2004).

    --------------------------------------------- -----
    AGENDA ITEM NINE: DESTRUCTION/CONVERSION OF CWPFS
    --------------------------------------------- -----

    ¶15.  (U)  The sub-items are as follows:
    -- 9.1 covers Pine Bluff.
    -- 9.2 covers changes to chemical process equipment in a
    State Party (EC-37/HP/NAT.1, dated 12 March 2004 and
    EC-37/DG.2, dated 1 April 2004).
    -- 9.3 covers the Russian changes in the former CWPF at
    Novocheboksarsk (EC-37/DG.4, dated 4 May 2004).
    -- 9.4 notes a DG report (not yet circulated) on CWPFs where
    conversion is in progress, and of progress at such facilities.

    -------------------------------------
    AGENDA ITEM TEN: FACILITY AGREEMENTS
    -------------------------------------

    ¶16. (U)  The sub-items are as follows:
    --10.1 covers Aberdeen.
    --10.2 covers Dugway.
    --10.3 covers a Singapore Schedule 1 facility agreement
    (EC-37/DEC.CRP.1, dated 15 March 2004).
    --10.4 covers an Australian Schedule 1 facility agreement
    (EC-37/DEC/CRP.1, dated 26 March 2004).
    --10.5 covers Pine Bluff.

    -----------------------------------
    AGENDA ITEM ELEVEN: INDUSTRY ISSUES
    -----------------------------------

    ¶17.  (U) The only issue which appears ripe for adoption as a
    result of the cluster sessions is EC report language for
    facility agreements.

    The language proposed by the facilitators is as follows:
    "The Council recalled paras 17 and 24 of the VA Part VII
    where a Schedule 2 facility agreement shall be concluded
    between the iSP and the Organization unless the iSP and the
    Secretariat agree that it is not needed.  The Council

    SIPDIS
    recommended the Secretariat, which was requested by the
    Conference 'to continue its efforts to optimize verification
    measures' (Para 7.39(i), RC-1/5, 9 May 03) to consider
    carefully the need for each Schedule 2 FA, in a consistent
    and non-discriminatory manner, based on the information
    available through its verification activities (declaration
    and inspection) and also taking into account the opinion of
    the iSP involved.  The Council expects that the future
    application of paragraphs 17 and 24 may lead to a noticeable
    reduction in the overall number of Schedule 2 facility
    agreements which are required to be negotiated between the
    iSP and the Secretariat and brought before the Council for
    approval."

    ¶18.  (U) Del understands the only two delegations in
    opposition to the proposed text remain India and Iran.  India
    has requested the facilitators to include some language which
    would broadly set out the criteria which the TS would
    consider as it decides whether or not to negotiate an
    agreement (e.g., characteristics of the facility, anticipated
    frequency of inspection, etc.).  The facilitators are
    reluctant to do so, given that this would set in motion an
    effort to define the criteria that should fall under the
    purview of the TS as it is their procedures that are in
    question.  The Iranian delegation has requested the
    facilitators to drop the last sentence of the proposal.

    --------------------------------------
    AGENDA ITEM TWELVE: NEW VALIDATED DATA
    --------------------------------------

    ¶19.  (U)  The EC is requested to consider the DG's note on
    new validated data for inclusion in the OPCW Central
    Analytical Database (draft decision EC-37/DEC/CRP.3, 18 May
    2004).

    --------------------------------------------- ---------
    AGENDA ITEM THIRTEEN: OPCW PRIVILEGES AND IMMUNITIIES
    --------------------------------------------- ----------

    ¶20.  (U)  The EC is requested to consider and conclude an
    agreement on privileges and immunities between the OPCW and
    Mauritius (EC-37/DEC/CRP.6, 6 June 2004).  There is a similar
    agreement with Malta (EC-37/DEC/CRP.7, 7 June 2004) which has
    also been circulated.

    --------------------------------
    AGENDA ITEM FOURTEEN: OIO REPORT
    --------------------------------

    ¶21.  (U)  In general, delegations have used the consultations
    on the report (EC-37/DG.5, dated 7 May 2004) to question why
    OIO recommendations have not been adopted by the TS and to
    raise questions on management and administrative policy.  A
    more detailed report on consultations was provided in The
    Hague 1391.

    --------------------------------------
    AGENDA ITEM FIFTEEN: FINANCIAL ISSUES
    --------------------------------------

    ¶22.  (U)  Item 15.1 covers income and expenditure
    (EC-37/DG.3, dated 23 April 2004, EC-37/DG.8, 25 May 2004,
    and the document for income and expenditure as of May 31,
    which has yet to be circulated).

    ¶23.  (U)  Item 15.2 addresses non-service incurred death and
    disability insurance (EC-36/S/10, dated 15 March 2004) and
    the EC is requested to note the report on phasing out
    existing agreements for this coverage in a way that respects
    any acquired rights.

    --------------------------------------------- --------
    AGENDA ITEM SIXTEEN: AMENDMENTS TO THE FINANCIAL REGULATIONS
    --------------------------------------------- --------

    ¶24.  (U)  Addressed above.

    ---------------------------------
    AGENDA ITEM SEVENTEEN: ABAF REPORT
    ---------------------------------

    ¶25.  (U)  The ABAF is meeting June 14-18.  It is expected
    that a report will be available the week of the EC.  Del will
    report separately on the outcome of the ABAF meetings.

    --------------------------------------------- ----
    AGENDA ITEM EIGHTEEN: PROVISIONAL AGENDA OF CSP 9
    --------------------------------------------- ----

    ¶26.  (U)  The council is requested to consider the
    provisional agenda of the Ninth CSP, which has yet to be
    circulated.

    -----------------------------------
    AGENDA ITEM NINETEEN: 2005 EC DATES
    -----------------------------------

    ¶27.  (U)  The council is requested to consider the following
    dates for its regular sessions in 2005: EC-40, 15-18 March;
    EC-41, 28-1 July; EC-42, 27-30 September; EC-43, 6-9 December.

    --------------------------------------

    --------------------------------------

    ¶28.  (U) At this point, there is no additional topic that is
    contemplated under this agenda item.
