Detection Architecture Guidelines Non-Paper Delivered
-------------- --------------
1. On November 28, Emboff delivered Ref A non-paper on
detection architecture model guidelines for the Global
Initiative to Combat Nuclear Terrorism to Mani Bhattarai,
Section Officer for UN and International Organizations at the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA). After reviewing the
document, Bhattarai said he would consult with his superiors
as to whether Nepal would be able to send a representative to
the meeting of Global Initiative partner nation technical
experts in Washington, D.C., in January 2008. Bhattarai
promised to inform Post of any comments and decisions by
December 7.
Nepalese Point of Contact To Be Determined
--------------
2. Emboff asked Bhattarai if the MFA had designated a Global
Initiative point of contact (Ref B). The Section Officer
said he would probably be the primary contact within the MFA,
but the Ministry of Environment, Science and Technology would
likely have the technical lead. He told Emboff that he would
inform Post when he knew additional contact details. Post
will continue to deliver Global Initiative information to
Bhattarai while the Government of Nepal deliberates a
permanent arrangement.
