France has initiated a new multilateral special agreement under ADR, M356, to provide conditions for the carriage in bulk of waste contaminated with free asbestos (UN 2212 and 2590). The agreement, once counter-signed by another state to allow it to be used, anticipates an amendment agreed for the 2025 edition of ADR; as such, it is scheduled to expire on 31 December 2024.
