specify identification and batch data for each batch of nuclear material, the date of the inventory change and, as appropriate, the originating material balance area and the receiving material balance area or the recipient. These reports shall be accompanied by concise notes:
    (a) Explaining the inventory changes, on the basis of the operating data contained in the operating records provided for under Article 59(a); and
    (b) Describing, as specified in the Subsidiary Arrangements, the anticipated operational programme, particularly the taking of a physical inventory.

Article 66
Australia shall report each inventory change, adjustment and correction, either periodically in a consolidated list or individually. Inventory changes shall be reported in terms of batches. As specified in the Subsidiary Arrangements, small changes in inventory of nuclear material, such as transfers of analytical samples, may be combined in one batch and reported as one inventory change.

Article 67
The Agency shall provide Australia with semi‑annual statements of book inventory of nuclear material subject to safeguards under this Agreement, for each material balance area, as based on the inventory change reports for the period covered by each such statement.

Article 68
Material balance reports shall include the following entries, unless otherwise agreed by Australia and the Agency:
    (a) Beginning physical inventory;
    (b) Inventory changes (first increases, then decreases);
    (c) Ending book inventory;
    (d) Shipper/receiver differences;
    (e) Adjusted ending book inventory;
    (f) Ending physical inventory; and
    (g) Material unaccounted for.
A statement of the physical inventory, listing all batches separately and specifying material indentification and batch data for each batch, shall be attached to each material balance report.

Article 69
                   Special reports
Australia shall make special reports without delay:
    (a) If any unusual incident or circumstances lead Australia to believe that there is or may have been loss of nuclear material that exceeds the limits specified for this purpose in the Subsidiary Arrangements; or
    (b) If the containment has unexpectedly changed from that specified in the Subsidiary Arrangements to the extent that unauthorized removal of nuclear material has become possible.

Article 70
            Amplification and clarification of reports
If the Agency so requests, Australia shall provide it with amplifications or clarifications of any report, in so far as relevant for the purpose of safeguards.

                  Purposes of inspections
Article 72
The Agency may make ad hoc inspections in order to:
    (a) Verify the information contained in the initial report on the nuclear material subject to safeguards under this Agreement;
    (b) Identify and verify changes in the situation which have occurred since the date of the initial report; and
    (c) Identify, and if possible verify the
