31. The expert from the Republic of Korea introduced GRSP-61-24 to inform GRSP about research and safety testing activities on L7 categories of vehicles. She also stated that Korea is planning to develop a frontal collision requirement for L7 category vehicles. The expert from EC informed GRSP that a study by the European Union on an initial assessment of additional functional safety of L7 vehicles was available. However, he added that the study did not show enough crash-worthiness data to justify an action plan. Moreover, he offered his availability, if needed, to cooperate with the expert from the Republic of Korea to adapt existing UN Regulations or in the development of a new UN Regulations to address this issue. The expert from France added that the fleet of L7 categories was increasing in his country and he volunteered to provide domestic accident data at the December 2017 session of GRSP. The Chair of GRSP, recalling a previous presentation made by the expert of his country at the May 2016 session (see GRSP-59-18) stressed the need to address the roadworthiness issue related to this category of vehicles, especially frontal collision as performed by Euro NCAP (see ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1126, para. 86). GRSP agreed to resume discussion on this issue at its December 2017 session on the basis of further research data and follow-up by WP.29 at its November 2017 session.
