UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - An eagerly awaited U.S. inquiry is expected to report finding "documentary evidence" that Iraq (news - web sites) had chemical and biological weapons programs but no proof of actual arms themselves, a senior U.S. official said on Wednesday.

The report by David Kay, who served as a U.N. nuclear inspector in Iraq in 1991, "generally will be about chemical and biological weapons and I think he's going to find evidence, documentary evidence, statements by Iraqi scientists and technicians, that they had chemical and biological weapons production programs," the official told Reuters.

"Whether they will find or disclose anything on the weapons themselves, I doubt," he added.
