Part A War weapons, the production of which the Federal Republic of Germany has renounced (nuclear, biological and chemical weapons)
Excluded from the definition of weapons are all devices, parts, appliances, equipment, substances and organisms that serve civilian purposes or scientific, medical or industrial research in the fields of pure and applied science. Also excluded are the substances and organisms of items 3 and 5, insofar as they serve preventive, protective or detection purposes.
----- 1) For the biological agents referred to in paragraph 3(b), in the case of their civilian use, the export restrictions based on - Council Regulation (EC) No. 3381/94 of 19 December 1994 setting up a Community regime for the control of exports of dual-use items (OJ EC No. L 367 p. 1) in conjunction with the Council Decision of 19 December 1994 on the joint action adopted by the Council on the basis of Article J.3 of the Treaty on European Union concerning the control of exports of dual-use items (OJ EC No. L 367 p. 8), and - the provisions of the Foreign Trade and Payments Ordinance, in particular Sections 5 and 7 (4), to note. For ricin and saxitoxin (Number 3.1 letter d and Numbers 4 and 5), the restrictions, reporting requirements and inspection regulations of the Implementation Act to the Chemical Weapons Convention of August 2, 1994 (Federal Law Gazette I p. 1954) and the Implementation Ordinance to the Chemical Weapons Convention of November 20, 1996 (Federal Law Gazette I p. 1794) shall additionally apply.
