The Contract for the Carriage of Goods by Inland Waterways (CMNI)

This procedure concerns authorising Austria, Belgium, and Poland to ratify or accede to the Budapest Convention on the Contract for the Carriage of Goods by Inland Waterways (CMNI). This convention aims to harmonise rules for transporting goods on inland waterways.

This authorisation allows these member states to formally adopt the CMNI Convention, impacting businesses and individuals involved in inland waterway transport within these countries and potentially across the EU.
