In line with amendments presented in document GRSP/2017/13 and adopted by GRSP to clarify the seat belt installation procedure for testing integral child restraint systems (in order to ensure proper evaluation of potential injury risks), this proposal recommends corresponding amendments to address non-integral child restraint systems (e.g., booster seats).

24. The expert from the Netherlands gave a presentation (GRSP-62-39) to introduce ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/39 on preventing a lie of belt that could lead to injuries to children using non-integral CRS. The expert from CLEPA agreed in principle with the proposal but requested further clarification. Therefore, the expert from the Netherlands introduced GRSP-62-33-Rev.1. Finally, GRSP agreed to resume discussion at its May 2018 session and requested the secretariat to distribute GRSP-62-33-Rev.1 with an official symbol.

29. The expert from the Netherlands introduced GRSP-61-14-Rev.1 superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/13 aimed at excluding dangerous interpretations on the installation of CRS and introducing amendments proposed by the expert from CLEPA (GRSP-61-32). GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/13 as amended by Annex V to this report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal for consideration and vote to the November 2017 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1 as part (see para. 28 above) of draft Supplement 13 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 44.
