7. GRVA reviewed in detail GRVA-06-02 prepared by the ACSF group for consideration at this session.

8. GRVA reviewed the scope of the proposed Regulation, discussed a number of items such as the alignment of definitions with existing standards, whether or not the Software Indentification Number (RxSWIN) mechanism in the draft UN Regulation on Software Updates and Software Update Management Systems should be implemented on a mandatory basis.

11. The expert from the European Commission introduced GRVA-06-10 proposing the text for a generic Annex (possibly applicable to all Automated Driving Systems, including ALKS) on special requirements to be applied to the safety aspects of electronic control systems and their audit. GRVA reviewed the submission by the expert from Canada, Co-Chair of the IWG on VMAD, of an alternative proposal with a few editorial corrections and modifying the scope of the annex, substituting Automated Driving Systems by ALKS throughout the text of the annex.

24. The Chair regretted that GRVA did not have enough time for reviewing the proposal submitted by the expert from AVERE and also for the proposal submitted by the expert from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. GRVA agreed to consider these two items at its September 2020 session.
