As highlighted in the Co-Chairs Summary of the 10th anniversary event of the entry into force of ICSANT, “States should ensure that criminalization penalties for acts involving the willful, unauthorized acquisition, possession, use, transfer or transport of radioactive materials are appropriately encoded into national law and should create opportunities to exchange information with partner countries on the subject specifically […] While there is no single correct way to implement the conventions on a national level, models provided by other countries […] can provide guidance on national implementation”.
In September 2020, as part of its promotion of the universalization and effective implementation of ICSANT, UNODC sent a letter to all ICSANT States Parties inviting them to submit information on its legislation implementing the criminalization requirements of Article 2 of ICSANT.
An example of the letter can be found here.
