Sumario:The COMPASS experiment covers a broad physics program with muon and hadrons beams. The muon beam can be scattered on a longitudinally or transversely polarised target. In this article the production of hadron pairs in deep inelastic scattering of muons on transversely polarised $^{6}$LiD target is described. Data selection cuts and results on the spin asymmetries are presented. The results are based on the data collected by the experiment in the years 2002 and 2003. Plans and prospects for the future are discussed, in particular in connection with hadron identification.
