35. The Chair recalled that GRRF already supported ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/39 and that this document was kept on the agenda, awaiting other proposals to be considered at this session.

36. The expert from ETRTO introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/5 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/6 as amended by GRRF-83-11 and GRRF-83-12, proposing to introduce new tyres size usually listed in Annex 5 in a new Resolution, aimed at simplifying the update of this annex as well as reducing the number of amendments. GRRF noted that Annex 5 was containing non-metric tyre sizes not in line with the general formulae contained in the Regulation; therefore, GRRF wondered whether the right approach would be to introduce the appropriate formulae in the Regulation instead of continuously updating Annex 5. The expert from ETRTO agreed to address this proposal and to submit, if suitable, revised proposals for consideration at the next session.

39. GRRF requested the secretariat to submit the adopted proposals ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/9 amended by Annex VI (based on GRRF-83-23 and GRRF-83-15) as well as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/39 as draft Supplement 15 to Regulation No. 106 (Agricultural tyres) to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their June 2017 sessions.

37. GRRF agreed with the proposals above (see paras. 35-36) and requested the secretariat to keep the documents on the agenda of its January 2017 session.
