If you need help finding specific country policy, one of the best quick ways to try to do so on the Internet is to use a search engine with "your country name" in quotes and "chemical weapons" or "CWC" in quotes.  I personally use Altavista's Advanced Search.   For that, type in:

"<insert country name>" and "chemical weapons" in the search text box.  You can also type: CWC in the ranking text box if you want.  After you have found possibly a good site, you can add and host:www.web_address_that you like.com in the search text box, which will look only at the pages in the specified site.

GSIMUN Research Assistance - Lots of general links and information, as well as some search engines.

UN DISC Home Page - This page has some useful information, including examples of the reports and notes of the 52nd Assembly as well as the resolutions passed during the session.  The latter link may be especially useful if you need to know how write a resolution.  The resolutions are linked (in .PDF format) from that page.

UN Peacekeeping Operations - This page has links to the latest updates and news on peacekeeping operations as well as relevant links to peacekeeping.  This includes background, problems, analysis, etc.

Chemical Weapons Convention Home Page - This has the latest news and updates, as well as a current list of signatories and ratifiers.   Furthermore, there is background information as well as links to other CW related sites.
