We have assessed the capability of the international fusion program to provide the physics data needed to support a decision to proceed with the construction of ITER in 1996–1997. We conclude that the international fusion program has the capability to provide the data, but that additional emphasis is needed in two areas, power and particle control and disruptions, for the required data to be available by 1996.
