| Summary | Exchange of communications between the secretariat and the UN Office of Legal Affairs concerning the simplification of lighting and light-signalling Regulations (SLR). GRE proposed to consolidate around 30 Regulations on different individual lighting and light-signalling devices (lamps) into three new Regulations (forward lighting, light-signalling, and retro-reflective devices). OLA provides general comments in response to GRE questions intended to ensure that the selected approach respects the legal and administrative requirements of UN treaties and specifically the 1958 Agreement. | ||||||||

8. GRE recalled the phased approach to simplifying the lighting and light-signalling Regulations (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/75, paras. 9-12) and noted that the United Nations Office for Legal Affairs (OLA) had not identified any problems with this approach and that WP.29 had endorsed it at the June 2016 session (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1123, para. 44 and GRE-76-11). |
