§ Mr. Douglas HoggThe signatory states have taken certain steps (data exchange and corrections, notification of inspectors' names, active inspection quotas and other details required by the inspection protocol) under those provisions of the CFE treaty which were provisionally applied from the time of signature. Further steps in the implementation of the treaty (including the destruction/ conversion of excess equipment and the establishment of the verification regime) will take place after the treaty has entered into force, which happens only afterall 22 signatories have deposited instruments of ratification. To date, no signatory has done so.
