The draft at a board of governors' meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), said Iran should "remedy all failures identified by the Agency" in complying with nuclear non-proliferation safeguards and take "all necessary actions by the end of October 2003."
These include "providing a full declaration of the sources and types of all imported material and components relevant to the enrichment program, especially imported equipment and components stated to have been contaminated with high enriched uranium particles," which could be weapons-grade, the resolution said.
It said third countries, which could refer to Pakistan, should "cooperate closely and fully" in determining who supplied Iran with the contaminated uranium.
The resolution said Iran should also allow IAEA inspectors free access for "environmental sampling" and resolve questions about gas centrifuges which could be used in enriching uranium.
Iran should also sign an additional protocol to allow IAEA inspectors to make unannounced inspections, the resolution said.
Iran has come under increased pressure, notably from the United States, to come clean on its atomic energy program amid claims from the Americans that Tehran is trying to develop a nuclear bomb.
