WP.29 | Session 153 | 8-11 Mar 2011

44. The World Forum resumed consideration of the guidance requested by GRSG on the introduction of a concept of Revisions of type approvals in the framework of the 1958 Agreement on the basis of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2010/111 proposing Supplement 5 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 46 (Devices for indirect vision) (see ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1087, para. 45). The representative of OICA introduced WP.29-153-27 clarifying the concerns expressed by Japan at the previous session.

45. The Chair of GRE agreed to adopt documents ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2010/111 and WP.29-153-27, however, as the definitions of “revision” and “extension” of type approvals may affect manufacturers of vehicle lighting and light signalling, he asked WP.29 to leave this item including WP.29-153-26, on the agenda of the June session to allow for potential comments from GRE experts. The Chair of GRRF wondered if WP.29-153-26 in seeking clarification on the extensions to type approvals was linked to the proposal by GRSG. WP.29 agreed with the Chair’s suggestion to have a final review of the proposals at the June 2011 session relying on OICA to advise on the relationship between both issues.
