Proposal to:
a) Align definitions and content with the other tyre regulations (UN Regulations Nos. 117, 54, 75 etc.);
b) Include a definition of “manufacturer” extracted from the resolution “R.E.3”;
c) Adopt a common definition and use of the terms “Manufacturer’s name”, “Brand name”, “Trademark”, “Trade description” and “Commercial name” and their links; and
d) Add information in the certificate to enable approval authorities to more easily understand the products the certificate addresses.
31. The expert from France introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/11 together with ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/13 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/14 respectively under agenda items 7(c) and 7(g) below, proposing revised clarifications of the definitions. GRRF adopted the proposal and requested the secretariat to submit them to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their June 2016 sessions, as draft Supplement 18 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 30, as part of the draft Supplement 21 to Regulation No. 54 and as draft Supplement 9 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117.
34. The expert from France presented GRRF-80-09, introducing the proposal ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2015/25 as well as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2015/29 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2015/31 (see paras 39 and 45 below). GRRF supported the concept but was of the opinion that some clarifications would be necessary e.g. concerning para. 2.1. with the definition of a type. The expert from France volunteered to prepare revised proposals.
