31. The expert from EC reminded GRPE about the need to align Regulation No. 96 with the new EU Regulation (2016/1628) on Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) engines (GRPE-75-09). He presented GRPE-75-10 to introduce a first draft of the 05 series of amendments to Regulation No. 96 available as GRPE-75-11.
