17. Referring to the possibility of installing side-facing seats, under certain conditions, GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2011/6, as amended by Annex II to this report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and the Administrative Committee of the 1958 Agreement (AC.1), for consideration and vote at their November 2011 sessions, as draft Supplement 3 to the 07 series of amendments to Regulation No. 14.

18. GRSP adopted GRSP-49-11-Rev.1, as reproduced in Annex II to this report, to introduce transitional provisions to Supplement 2 to the 07 series of amendments to the Regulation (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2011/54). The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as informal document WP.29-154-02 to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration and vote at their June 2011 sessions, as draft amendment to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2011/54.

19. The expert from OICA introduced GRSP-49-06 through a presentation (GRSP-49-21) to match the provisions of the draft Regulation on child restraint systems (CRS). GRSP agreed to refer GRSP-49-06 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2011/9 to the informal working group on child restraint systems (CRS) in view of possible revisions to these proposals in relation to the requirements of the draft Regulation on CRS. Finally, GRSP recommended the informal group to submit the revised proposal as an official document for the December 2011 session of GRSP and then to adopt this as a full package with the new draft Regulation on CRS.

20. Concerning the reintroduction of side-facing seats (see para. 17), GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2011/7 as amended by Annex III to this report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration and vote at their November 2011 sessions, as draft Supplement 2 to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 16. The expert from Japan withdrew GRSP-49-20.

21. As agreed for Regulation No. 14 (see para. 19), GRSP referred GRSP-49-07 to the informal group on CRS for discussion and requested the informal group to submit a revised proposal as an official document to the December 2011 session of GRSP.
