The Institute for Security Studies (ISS) would like to commend the National Conventional Arms Control Committee (NCACC) and the Directorate for Conventional Arms Control (DCAC) for their efforts to enhance arms export controls in South Africa by means of drafting the National Conventional Arms Control Amendment Bill (Bill No. 45 of 2008). South Africa arguably has the most comprehensive arms control policy and legislation in Africa. South African government officials have made important contributions to international arms control processes and in the development of arms control and disarmament instruments at the global, regional and sub-regional levels.
