58. The expert from IMMA introduced document GRSG-118-11, the proposal for amendments to the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3), and document GRSG-118-18, the proposal to introduce bodied L7 vehicles in R.E.3.

59. GRSG considered GRSG-118-11 and requested its submission as an official document for consideration at the October 2020 session of GRSG.

26. GRSP resumed discussion on including L7 categories of vehicles into the scope of UN Regulation No. 137. The expert from IMMA recalled his presentation introduced at the December 2019 session of GRSP (GRSP-66-20) which proposed a three-steps approach for the harmonization of (passive) safety requirements of bodied, heavy quadricycles (L7), and in which the third step involved a proposal to update UN Regulation No. 137. He explained that in line with the first step, IMMA had introduced a proposal (GRSG-118-18) at the July 2020 session of the Working Party on General Safety (GRSG) with a clear definition of bodied L7-vehicles in the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3.), and which had been positively received. Moreover, he added that his organization hoped to conclude the first step with an official document for the October 2020 session of GRSG. He concluded that further discussion on, with regards to the interest of contracting parties to develop a proposal for inclusion of L7 categories in UN Regulation No. 137 was found to be premature pending conclusion of the first (and second) steps.
