Document Title Proposal for amendments to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2017/42, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2017/43 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2017/44
Reference Number GRPE-74-16
Date
12 Jan 2017
Summary The subject documents would permit Contracting Parties applying UN R83 and/or UN R101 and which have transposed GTR No. 15 (WLTP) into their local legislation to refuse to accept type approvals granted under the UN R83 and/or UN R101 as a compliance alternative to their national/regional legislation (i.e., aligned with GTR No. 15). OICA proposes to clarify the intent by deleting allusions to the measure as a form of derogation, to replace the phrase "may no longer accept" with "may refuse", and to introduce a sunset clause to noting that the measure is intended as a stop-gap until such time as GTR No. 15 has been transposed into the corpus of UN Regulations.

The Secretary of GRPE presented ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2017/42, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2017/43 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2017/44 on transitional provisions to be introduced in Regulations Nos. 83 and 101 as an interim solution while the Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) is transposed into the 1958 Agreement. He explained that these documents were prepared by the Secretariat as agreed by WP.29 at its June 2016 session. Following the request of WP.29 and taking into account the urgency of the topic, he explained that the three proposals were already submitted to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their March 2017 sessions, but subject to the endorsement of GRPE at this session.
