Summary

This final chapter briefly sets out two lists of recommendations with the intention of helping to progress the debate about regulation of autonomous weapon systems currently being conducted by the States Parties to the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons. The first set relates to the definition of autonomous weapons. This has been a point of contention since the first informal Meeting of Experts was held in 2014. The recommendations given here are drawn from the points made in earlier chapters and can be used to formulate a definition of autonomous weapons which will support regulatory efforts. The second set of recommendations briefly outlines a proposed regulatory response based on the approaches taken in existing Protocols of the CCW.
