# The International Air Transport Association is calling for stronger and more coordinated screening across the air cargo supply chain to detect undeclared or misdeclared dangerous goods. IATA says about 80-percent of dangerous-goods incidents reported in the first half of last year involved hidden or undeclared items, including lithium batteries, aerosols and e-cigarettes. The association proposes a five-layer approach involving governments, manufacturers, shippers, airlines, ground handlers and airports to improve safety and information sharing.
