28. GRSP noted a similar proposal introduced under agenda item 10 (see para. 18 above) resumed discussion on a proposal (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2020/14) GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2020/14, not amended and requested the secretariat to submit the proposal as the draft Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendment to UN Regulation No. 137, for consideration and vote at the June 2021 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.

29. The expert from the Republic of Korea introduced GRSP-68-06, concerning the Korean New Car Assessment Programme results on Micro-Mobility/Quadricycles (L7 Category vehicles). He suggested that it would be difficult to introduce new impact test requirements for L7 vehicles to ensure crash safety at same level equivalent of small passenger vehicles at this stage. He confirmed that Micro-Mobility can comply with other requirements such as door latch, seat strength, safety-belt anchorages and electrical safety after impact. He concluded that GRSP should consider developing requirements for major components of Micro-Mobility as a first step and wished to start cooperation with Japan and with IMMA on overall Micro-Mobility safety. GRSP agreed to resume discussion on this subject at its May 2021 session.
