SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The rule (Public Notice 8270, 78 FR 21523), 
published on April 11, 2013, amends the International Traffic in Arms 
Regulations to implement the Treaty, and identifies via a supplement

that it would become effective upon the entry into force of the Treaty, 
and that the Department of State would publish another rule announcing 
its effective date. The Treaty entered into force on May 16, 2013.
