1540 COMMITTEE MATRIX OF JAMAICA
The information in the matrices originates primarily from national reports and is complemented by official government information, including that made available to
inter-governmental organizations. The matrices are prepared under the direction of the 1540 Committee.
The 1540 Committee intends to use the matrices as a reference tool for facilitating technical assistance and to enable the Committee to continue to enhance its dialogue
with States on their implementation of Security Council Resolution 1540.
The matrices are not a tool for measuring compliance of States in their non-proliferation obligations but for facilitating the implementation of Security Council Resolutions
1540 (2004), 1673 (2006), 1810 (2008) and 1977 (2011). They do not reflect or prejudice any ongoing discussions outside of the Committee, in the Security Council or any
of its organs, of a State's compliance with its non-proliferation or any other obligations. Information on voluntary commitments is for reporting purpose only and does not
constitute in any way a legal obligation arising from resolution 1540 or its successive resolutions.
