Well aware of the difficulties for achieving the goal of a world convention, I’m thinking what could be possible in the meantime for improving harmonization among different modes of transport.
One step could be a request (from ECOSOC ?) to IMO, ICAO, ECE (for ADR/RID/ADN) in terms of instructing the relevant bodies to clearly justify any (also editorial) departure from UN Model Regulations.
And on this line the UN SubCommittee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods could agree, at the July 2007 meeting, to invite ICAO DGP, IMO DSC, Joint Meeting ADR/RID/AND, to revise their regulations in terms of adopting the Model Regulations as they are, apart from well justified safety reasons, and, at the same time, bring to the attention of the UNSCETDG, together with such deviations, what is thought to be incorrect or unclear.
