<p>No decisions were taken at this year’s Preparatory Comittee for the 2020 Non-Proliferation
Treaty Review Conference. The British Government remains committed to working with
a wide range of states on how we can tackle the challenges that we face on non-proliferation
and disarmament, and on how to enable access to the peaceful use of nuclear technology.
We will continue to press for the entry into force of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty,
the start of negotiations on a Fissile Material Cut-Off Treaty in the Conference on
Disarmament, and increased transparency and trust between Nuclear Weapons States in
order to develop global conditions in which nuclear armed states feel confident enough
to relinquish their weapons. In particular, the British Government will continue its
leading role in resolving the considerable technical and procedural challenges involved
in nuclear disarmament verification.</p>
