38. The expert from OICA presented GRPE-77-20 that improves the justification of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2018/19 by proposing a solution to align the provisions of the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 24 with UN Regulation No. 85. GRPE adopted the proposal and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their June 2018 sessions as draft Supplement 4 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 24.

39. The expert from Italy introduced GRPE-77-09 on the need to update UN Regulation No. 115 and the need to introduce a reference to WLTP instead of emission tests performed on the basis of the former test cycle (New European Driving Cycle (NEDC)). He proposed to host a meeting with all interested parties in order to develop a working document that would be presented at the January 2019 session of GRPE. He mentioned the letter from the expert of AEGPL showed support to the idea and interest to participate in the activities (GRPE-77-23). He stated that the difficulty for this work was that WLTC was not yet included in a UN Regulation but in a UN GTR.

40. The expert from OICA presented GRPE-77-06 proposing a new Supplement to UN Regulation No. 85 (Measurement of the net power) amending provisions on power measurement of air-cooled high-power engines. The expert from the Netherlands needed more clarifications on the actual proposal. The expert from OICA stated all questions would be answered before the next session of GRPE in January 2019.
