Research assessment
- Inclusion rationale
- Recitals B-J and operative points 1-7: AI-enabled autonomous weapons, human control, accountability and international prohibition policy.
- Researcher notes
- The OJ publication is later than parliamentary adoption; no claim that December 2019 was first public availability. This is a non-binding resolution, not a regulation or AI Act implementation measure. The initial review left concept coding and policy-group assignment incomplete. Broad policy-group membership was recorded on 12 September 2026; concept-review history remains separate. This editorial grouping does not establish a legal or procedural relationship.
