Main content of the document from (F):
Remove CAT D and CAT E from Regulation 79 and install it in a new Regulation. Longitudinal control should not be part of the Regulation 79.

(Chair): In the last WP.29-session, the Chairman of the GRRF (Bernie Frost) reported to the delegates the current work of the IWG ACSF and also, why the group has started with CAT E. It is clear, that the Regulation 79 is not the best “location” for ACSF in total, but to finalize this work in the given timeline, only this approach seem to be the most appropriate. WP.29 did not disagree with this.

(OICA): Proposes to go on with the current working strategy.
(D): All have agreed to go this way, also parking systems are needing braking functions.
(CLEPA): The current way was already confirmed by GRRF.

17. The representative of the United Kingdom, co-chairing the IWG on Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), gave a status report on the Group’s activities. He reported that the IWG convened on Wednesday, 9 March 2016 from 2.30 to 5:15 p.m. with the following intervention:
a) The representative of Finland, Ambassador of the IWG on ITS/AD gave a status report of the activities of WP.1, see para. 89.
b) The technical secretary of the IWG presented a proposal with definitions of Automated Driving and on major horizontal issues and legal obstacles related to Automated Driving.
c) The IWG discussed a proposal for guidelines on measures insuring cybersecurity and data protection of connected vehicles and vehicles with automated driving technologies, submitted by the representatives of Germany and Japan.
d) The representative of France presented GRRF-81-14 advocating for a regulatory structure differing from the one chosen by the IWG on Automated Commended Steering Function (ACSF), noting that this approach could be followed in a second step.
e) The Chair of the ISO Technical Committee 22 on Road Vehicles presented the relevant activities of ISO related to automated driving technologies and indicated the existing collaborations with SAE International. The representative from ITU made a presentation on secure vehicle software updates. The IWG concluded that further coordination would be needed to ensure that the international organizations ITU and ISO could deliver complementary input for the work done at the World Forum on ITS/AD.

52. This agenda item was discussed together with the following agenda item. The secretariat noted the decision of their authors and GRRF to remove ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2015/2, GRRF-79-04, GRRF-80-08 and GRRF-81-14 from the agenda, as the progress done under the following agenda item would cover the subjects covered by those documents.
