N2  - A mandate to negotiate a treaty banning the production of fissile material for nuclear weapons has been under discussion in the Conference of Disarmament (CD) in Geneva since 1994. On 29 May 2009 the Conference on Disarmament finally agreed on a mandate to begin those negotiations; shortly afterwards, UNIDIR, with the support of the Government of Switzerland, launched a project with two main objectives. The project sought to remind diplomats of the history of the CD's treatment of the topic of banning the production of fissile material for nuclear weapons. It also aimed to shed light on the critical issues at stake in the negotiation of a fissile material treaty. This publication is a compilation of various products of the project . It includes a briefing paper on the work of the CD on developing a mandate for the negotiation of a fi ssile material treaty, a list of relevant CD documents, a bibliography of relevant academic and other materials, and papers presented or drawn upon at three seminars convened by UNIDIR under the project.--Publisher's description
