The Chair noted that the first priority is finalising GTR on OBD, before going-on tackling all other EPPR areas. Activities will continue in Phase 2 starting with the review of GTR2.

IMMA proposed a methodology of work for GTR2. Since GTR2 adoption a number of amendments have followed which have not been consolidated in a published document by UNECE. . EC had submitted to EPPR a proposal for GTR 2 revision [EPPR-11-15 Rev1].

IMMA proposed to use Excel within the group as a tool to keep track of the review and further development of the GTR2. This approach would enable to make correct reference to the paragraphs at stake. Upon finalisation of the activities on ODB, IMMA volunteered to prepare a comparison in Excel, containing two columns, one with the latest status of GTR2 Consolidated with the latest amendments and supplements and one with the EC proposal. The differences between the two versions would become apparent. . It would be appreciated if EC could then justify the main changes of EPPR-11-15 Rev1 and if every stakeholder could provide their further comments in new columns.

The above proposed methodology of work was approved by the group.
