The Inland Transport Committee (ITC), at its eighty-first session in 2019, adopted the ITC Strategy until 2030, invited its subsidiary bodies to follow-up by aligning their work with the strategy and requested the secretariat to take the necessary actions to promote the implementation of the strategy (ECE/TRANS/288, paras. 15 (a), (c) and (g)). Furthermore, the Committee expressed its concern for the limited progress globally in meeting the Sustainable Development Goal targets on road safety and those of the United Nation Decade of Action for Road Safety (ibid, para. 64). To help countries, particularly new contracting parties, to further implement legal instruments in the area of road safety, the secretariat has prepared the draft ITC Recommendations for Enhancing National Road Safety Systems for comments by the Working Parties. Against this background, GRBP is invited to provide its contribution.

GRBP may also wish to resume its discussion on how to implement the new provisions of Revision 3 of the 1958 Agreement on “Unique Identifier” (UI).

GRBP will consider any other subjects, if necessary.
