8 May 2014 Montreux, Vaud, Switzerland
First Meeting of the Basel Convention Small Intersessional Working Group on Legal Clarity

This meeting aims to: finalize the glossary of terms; prepare recommendations as to whether any terms defined in previously adopted technical guidelines and guidance documents as well as the framework for the environmentally sound management of hazardous wastes and other wastes need to be updated as a result; prepare recommendations as to whether further guidance would be useful; and prepare recommendations on the options for further steps towards the consistent interpretation of terminology, including possible voluntary and legally binding options.
