For the sake of the convention's viability, there is a need to devise a verification régime which prevents interference that is not justified by the aims of the inspection. In this regard, the concept of "managed access", in so far as it entails the right to protect legitimate interests, provides a practical basis. As regards various aspects of the convention now being negotiated, some delegations have attempted to press on us the concept of "CW-capable States".
