| GRSG | Session 101 | 18-21 Oct 2011 |
5. The expert from EC recalled the discussion at the previous session on GRSG-100-06 on the accessibility of prams. The expert from OICA introduced GRSG-101-18 proposing alternative provisions to provide a specific area in vehicles of Class I allowing the child to remain seated in his pram or pushchair. GRSG supported in general that proposal. The expert from EC raised a study reservation on GRSG-101-18. GRSG agreed to have a final review of the proposal at its next session and requested the secretariat to distribute GRSG-101-18 with an official symbol. GRSG also agreed to keep GRSG-100-06 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2010/33 on the agenda as reference documents. 6. The expert from Spain presented ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2011/24 proposing to amend the test provisions of the Regulation taking into account flat monitors located on the roof of the gangway in M2 and M3 vehicles. The expert from Germany preferred an alternative text (GRSG-101-04). After discussion, GRSG adopted the proposal, as reproduced in GRSG-101-04-Rev.1 and in Annex II, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2012 session, as draft Supplement 2 to the 04 series of amendments to Regulation No. 107. 7. The expert from OICA introduced GRSG-101-09 proposing to align the provisions for the seat width for some classes of vehicles with regard to the space for passengers. GRSG adopted the proposal, as reproduced in Annex II, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2012 session, as part (see para. 6 above) of Supplement 2 to the 04 series of amendments to Regulation No. 107. 8. The expert from the Russian Federation suggested correcting, in Annexes 4 and 12, the units in “cm” to “mm” (GRSG-101-17). GRSG adopted the proposal, as reproduced in Annex II, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2012 session, as Corrigendum 2 to Revision 3 of Regulation No. 107. 9. The expert from CLCCR recalled the purpose of GRSG-100-16 regarding the lateral stability of rearward facing wheelchairs. GRSG agreed with her suggestion to reconsider this matter at its April 2012 session on the basis of a revised proposal to be prepared by CLCCR, including a detailed justification. |
