Working Party on Passive Safety | Session 54 | 17-20 Dec 2013
Geneva
Agenda Item 22. (g)
Proposal for amendment to Global Technical Regulation No. 13

39. GRSP noted the proposal of amendments to UN GTR No. 13 (GRSP-54-10) and the consolidated text of the UN GTR incorporating the amendments proposed, submitted by the expert from EC. The expert from OICA suggested a fast adoption of this proposal (basically corrections to the actual text) since their incorporation in the Phase 2 development of the UN GTR would imply more time. He also suggested a pragmatic approach on Phase 2 concerning harmonized crash test requirements by using those applied for conventional vehicles, rather than specific new ones. The expert from United States of America announced a proposal concerning the development of Phase 2 of the UN GTR to the May 2014 session of GRSP. Moreover, he suggested coordinating efforts to have a single document with all the errors noted by interested parties. GRSP, noted that if the proposal was not addressed as part of Phase 2, the expert from the EC should first submit the proposal to AC.3, requesting authorization to develop the amendment. GRSP agreed to resume consideration on this agenda item at its next session on the basis of revised documents and keep GRSP-54-10 and GRSP-54-11 for reference only.
