Summary	Proposal to amend UN R44 in line with the proposal to amend UN R14 in order to separate child restraint provisions (including ISOFIX anchorage provisions) into a new UN Regulation.

Excerpts from session reports related to this document
GRSP \| Session 61 \| 8-12 May 2017			13. The expert from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/8 as the official proposal to remove ISOFIX anchorages from the Regulation and to incorporate them into the new Regulation that was dedicated to these anchorages only (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/7, see para. 45). GRSP adopted the proposal, as amended below, as the most viable solution to solve the incompatibility of the requirements of the Regulation with the existing designs of Child Restraint Systems (CRS) in Australia and including UN Regulation No. 14 into Annex 4 of the future UN Regulation No. 0 on the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval (IWVTA). The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as draft 08 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 14, for consideration and vote at the November 2017 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1. Paragraph 3.2.1., amend to read: “3.2.1. Drawings of the general vehicle structure on an appropriate scale, showing the positions of the belt anchorages, of the effective belt anchorages (where appropriate) and detailed drawings of the belt anchorages;” 28. The expert from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/10 which aligns the text of the Regulation for the purpose of splitting UN Regulation No. 14. GRSP adopted the proposal not amended and requested the secretariat to submit it for consideration and vote at the November 2017 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1 as draft Supplement 13 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 44.
