More funding needed for nuclear arms control

摘要

Australia needs to devote more funding to international efforts to limit the proliferation of nuclear weapons, a federal parliamentary committee recommended in a report issued last month.rnThe committee heard that Australian government agencies have lost specialists in arms control and disarmament. "If the Australian government intends to reposition Australia as a major international contributor to the disarmament and non-proliferation effort, then it must build and reinforce its capacity to contribute to such global efforts," the committee said.
