Working Party on General Safety | Session 123 | 28 Mar-1 Apr 2022
Geneva
Agenda Item 16. (c)
Periodical technical inspections

66. GRSG commented on the Whole Life Compliance document (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2021/148) by suggesting removal of those elements that are not covered by the 1958 and 1998 Agreements: Market Surveillance, Registration and Un-registration. GRSG also noted the withdrawal of GRSG-123-07 on this subject.

67. The expert from the Russian Federation introduced GRSG-123-12, proposing a new rule, devised by the IWG on Periodical Technical Inspections (PTI) to introduce periodical technical inspections of Emergency Call Systems (AECS), intended to be fitted to vehicles of categories M1 and N1 covered by UN Regulation No. 144. The expert from Germany informed GRSG that the current Directive (EU) 2021/1717 excluded AECS from PTI. The expert from OICA made several comments on the proposal (GRSG-123-36).

68. GRSG agreed to resume consideration at its October 2022 session on this subject based on a revised document with the comments from experts.
