The resolution requested the full co-operation of neighbouring states, the Transitional National Government (TNG) in Somalia, and other entities or individuals by providing unhindered access to information for the expert panel and for states to provide information on violations of the arms embargo; instances of non-compliance were to be reported to the Council. Neighbouring states were requested to report quarterly on steps taken to implement the embargo and were encouraged to enact and implement legislation to give effect to the implementation. Regional organisations, the African Union and League of Arab States were called upon to assist the Somali parties in the implementation of the embargo and the monitoring group.
