22. The expert from CLEPA reiterated a proposal (GRSP-67-33) (superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2020/3 and GRSP-67-16) and a presentation (GRSP-67-34) aimed at: (a) providing instructions to consumers in a digital form, (b) recording essential measurement information in the type approval system and (c) improving the procedure for assessing the external dimensions of Enhanced Child Restraint Systems (ECRS). The expert from Japan raised a study reservation on instructions to consumers in a digital form; consumers without access to internet should receive the same information in paper copies. GRSP agreed to resume discussion on this subject at its May 2020 session and requested the secretariat to distribute GRSP-67-33 with an official symbol.
