WP.29 | Session 154 | 21-24 Jun 2011

79. The World Forum agreed that ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2011/85 would represent considerable advantages for the harmonization and simplification of the legislative activity. Nevertheless, no agreement was reached on the solution to incorporate the protocol in the framework of the 1958 and 1998 Agreements. The representative of the United States of America did not support the proposal to incorporate the specifications of the tools in a common resolution, to which UN Regulations and UN GTRs could refer. She preferred, instead, to develop a new UN GTR. The World Forum considered that there were two possible options for incorporating the protocol into the existing framework: either incorporate it into the Consolidated Resolution of the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3) or into both R.E.3 and in a new UN GTR. The World Forum agreed to continue consideration of this matter at its November 2011 session.
