Where are you getting this information from?

Iran is still under the auspices of the NPT and currently has IAEA inspectors in country. The reactors, with the exception of the IR-40 are under IAEA safeguards.

The last major inspection of Iran's declared nuclear facilities was accomplished in November 2008 .

There is negotiation about the IR-40 Reactor, where the Iranians are taking the position that a DIQ (Design Information Questionnaire) was not needed because the IR-40 can't accept fissile material. The IAEA is in negotiation on this aspect since January 2009.

Iran has not refused IAEA inspection and safeguards on its declared nuclear industries. There are disagreements and challenges, but the IAEA still has a presence in Iraq.

WWW.Iaea.org for their reports.
