That UNMOVIC report says that there were still prohibited rocket components scheduled for destruction when the inspectors left. Also a few old pieces of equipment that had been previously destroyed, but reconstructed, had yet to be destroyed again. The report also says all chemical weapons they found were destroyed prior to the inspectors leaving.
A lot of that report is about how the inspectors spent much of their time trying to verify Iraq's claims that all their chemical and biological weapons were destroyed already. There wasn't much they could verify on that issue. They even noted that some weapons that had been marked as chemical were actually conventional. Investigations into why those weapons were not the real chemical weapons slated for destruction couldn't be done before the inspectors had to leave though.
The newly declassified documents are about chemical weapons found in Iraq. Nothing in that report mentions weapons like that still existing when the inspectors left.
