 We are the Office of Legal Affairs, and we provide legal support for all of the agency's extensive operations to ensure the safe, secure, and peaceful uses of nuclear technology. As in-house counsel for the IAEA, the General Legal Section keeps the organization on track with respect to corporate and administrative law matters. This means that we work on issues including finance, contracts, partnerships and personnel, as well as privileges and immunities and host government relations, and we do all of these things in respect of the worldwide activities of the IAEA. Our office supports the agency's work on nuclear safety and security, nuclear energy, nuclear applications, technical cooperation, and civil liability for nuclear damage. We also support the Director General's role as depository for the important treaties in the area of nuclear law. Our office provides assistance for the conclusion and implementation of various legal instruments, project and supply agreements, safeguards agreements, additional protocols, and small quantities protocols. In addition, we provide support on matters related to the implementation of the rules of procedures of the policy-making organs of the agency, the board of governors, and the general conference. We have this practical arrangement that was concluded with the IAEA and Califre University in Abu Dhabi, providing more professional level training to individuals, officials that are engaged in the program. Given the importance of international obligations when it comes to nuclear law, technical guys also need nuclear legislation, assistance and training, and that's why we started this partnership. It's been very successful and we're very pleased with the outcome. MTGS would not be able to survive without the Office of Legal Affairs. We know that the information that we received has been thoroughly researched. They are looking at having the best interests of the agency in mind so that when we receive that information, we're good to go. We know we can take it and run with it without any hesitation. CIFIGA is implemented to verify the legal obligation the state undertakes to use nuclear material and nuclear activity only for peaceful purpose. It is exactly the legal framework that underpins all CIFIGAs activity. Without that, we would not be able to provide to the world an assurance that proliferation is under control. The IAEA legislative assistance program, which is mainly implemented through the technical cooperation program, responds to an increasing demand from the member states to further raise the awareness of the international instrument, support them in drafting corresponding national nuclear legislation and building capacity in nuclear law. Our Director General has said the agency does not stop for a single minute whatever challenges we are facing, whether it is ensuring nuclear safety, nuclear security and safeguards in the context of an armed conflict or ensuring safeguards implementation during a pandemic, the Office of Legal Affairs is always there to provide the highest standard of legal services to support these activities.
