text: Once a clear understanding has been reached that the Conference is prepared to do serious work on the question of attacks of nuclear facilities, the prospects for finalizing without much delay a "traditional" radiological weapons treaty could in our view become real. A solid basis for this is already to be found in the text put forward in August 1985 by the Co-ordinator of Group A of the then Ad Hoc Working Group on the subject, Mr. Busby. That text, considered on its own merits, continues by and large to be acceptable to my delegation. Given sufficient flexibility by delegations the remaining stumbling blocks in Mr. Busby's draft could, so it seems to us, be removed without too much difficulty. On some of the outstanding issues in the draft treaty on track A my delegation will offer formulae for a possible compromise at the time that the Ad Hoc Committee will be dealing with them. For the moment I merely wish to suggest that in our view it seems appropriate to insert in the preambular part of that draft treaty a reference to our resolve to address the issue of attacks on nuclear facilities, in this Conference. I also wish to refer to last year's Swedish proposals in document CD/530, which, although mainly focussing on "track B", contain a number of interesting and imaginative solutions to some of the issues still bracketed in Mr. Busby's text. In the meantime, I hope we can go full steam ahead on track B. Allow me to make a few remarks on some of the issues still pending in relation to the question of attacks on nuclear facilities. Scope, definition and criteria remain key elements in our discussions in this area. The views of delegations, particularly with regard to criteria that would qualify nuclear facilities for protection under 
analysis: The text appears to be discussing international negotiations and diplomacy related to nuclear facilities and radiological weapons. The language used is formal and technical, suggesting that the topic is highly specialized and complex. The mention of specific documents and proposals from previous years also indicates that the text is part of a longer-term discussion and negotiation process.
