Med henblik herpå yder Den Europæiske Union finansiel støtte samt teknisk bistand til at oprette en afdeling for lette våben i Ecowas' tekniske sekretariat og til at omdanne moratoriet til en konvention om lette våben mellem Ecowas-staterne.
To this end, the European Union shall offer a financial contribution and technical assistance to set up the Light Weapons Unit within the ECOWAS Technical Secretariat and convert the Moratorium into a Convention on small arms and light weapons between the ECOWAS Member States.
