GRPE | Session 81 | 9-12 Jun 2020

9. The Chair briefly introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2020/92 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2020/93 that were submitted to the June 2020 session of WP.29 from EU and Japan as amendments to the new UN Regulation No. [154] on WLTP already adopted by GRPE during the January 2020 session. Both documents proposed changes to improve the text emerging from the development of Amendment 6 to UN GTR No. 15. GRPE noted the amendments and thanked the Informal Working Group (IWG) on WLTP and the Contracting Parties (CPs) involved in the preparation of these documents.

10. The representative from OICA introduced GRPE-81-30 and GRPE-81-35, amended by GRPE-81-29-Rev.1 during the session. These documents contained clarifications to UN Regulation No. [154] on WLTP. As requested during the last session of GRPE (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/80, para. 15), these documents were aimed at providing guidance to future users of UN Regulation No. [154] on WLTP. The secretariat then introduced GRPE-81-36 presenting various options to provide visibility to such clarification / guidance documents. GRPE agreed to create a new section on the GRPE website, similar to those appearing in the GRE and GRBP sections, under " Documents for reference only", where GRPE-81-29-Rev.1 would be uploaded.
