Working Party on Passive Safety | Session 66 | 10-13 Dec 2019
Geneva
Agenda Item 13.
UN Regulation No. 44 (Child Restraint Systems)

GRSP will consider a proposal of amendments tabled by the expert from the European Association for the Coordination of Consumer Representation in Standardization (ANEC) on behalf of Consumer International (CI) to stop granting new type approvals according to the UN Regulation on new Child Restraint Systems (CRS) (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2019/23). GRSP may also consider a proposal of amendment tabled by the expert from the European Commission, on behalf of the drafting task force, to prevent the type approval of belt-guides.

GRSP will consider this proposal from Poland to hold a fact-based discussion on the proposal to amend R44 as there were CRSs which would fall outside the scope of the regulation because of GRSP/2019/28.

GRSP may consider information from Spain on the positioning and securing of a CRS on the vehicle.
