GRBP may expect a progress report of the Task Force on Tyre Abrasion (TF TA) and will consider its amendment proposals, if any.
GRBP will take note that, at the June 2024 session of WP.29, the representative of the Russian Federation presented WP.29-193-10 on the establishment of limits for emissions of harmful substances from tyres and suggested that TF TA should explore the possibility of introducing limits for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in tyre production compounds. WP.29 recalled several precedents in UN Regulations which set out restrictions on the harmful substances, e.g. asbestos, in vehicle parts, and invited GRBP to look into the issue and to report back to WP.29.
