With the introduction of the Additional Protocol to compre - hensive safeguards agreements, the IAEA has new measures that strengthen its safeguards regime. The introduction of these new measures enables the IAEA to obtain increased assurances of the absence of undeclared nuclear activities and nuclear material in a state.
