- Structure for a new regulation to group a number of existing regulations
Mr. Draper introduced document SLR-07-07 showing three examples of new Regulations incorporating existing regulations. He pointed out that the proposed approach of using classes of lighting devices is intended to facilitate the creation of a single Regulation where the CPs are able to choose which parts of the regulation they will apply.

The meeting observed that the proposed approach is good but will work only when the DETA database will be operative. It was agreed to focus with priority on the Light Signalling devices (i.e. Regulations 4, 6, 7, 23, 38, 77, 87, 91) and the Forward Lighting devices (i.e. Regulations 19, 98, 112, 123, 119), identified respectively as “NEW1” and “NEW2” in document SLR-07-07. It was also agreed to move all the definitions from the draft resolution document (SLR-07-04) to Regulation 48.

11. | Next steps

SLR Next Steps:

  • Establish two sub-groups to work on the new Regulations “NEW1” and “NEW2” (as defined in document SLR-07-07).
  • Work to be done between meetings by the sub-groups and at the meetings by the SLR.
  • Start the technical work in January 2016 (8th SLR meeting).
  • SLR to prepare a presentation for GRE-75 describing and justifying the new approach.
  • GRE agreement to follow new approach in April 2016 (GRE-75)
  • WP.29 endorsement in June 2016 (169th WP.29)
