The Final Declaration also requests the PTS to act as a focal point where information about activities undertaken by States is collected in order to assist in promoting the entry into force of the Treaty. The Legal Services and the External Relations of the PTS were subsequently designated respectively as a contact point and a focal point on these matters.
