South Eastern Europe Clearinghouse for the Control of Small Arms and Light Weapons
Abstract
In most countries within South Eastern Europe a combination of past conflict and weak, but developing state institutions has resulted in varying degrees of control over the possession, use and trade in weapons in the first few years of the decade. The South Eastern and Eastern Europe Clearinghouse for the Control of SALW (SEESAC) has identified the need for the regional parliamentarians to receive information about the present SALW situation, risks, hazards and national commitments.
