107. The expert from China applauded the work done by the expert from the Netherlands on behalf of the IWG on EDR/DSSAD and appreciated his dedication to the group. He expressed his concerns on the problem with different definitions of the same elements in different UN Regulations, he further expressed concerns that sometimes, different English terms could have the same meaning. He proposed that non-English speaking countries find a way to harmonize resolutions and advised the use of limited English terms to prevent confusion in the use of words.

108. The expert from Netherlands said that the document is a base document for the 1958 Agreement and Contracting Parties to the UN Regulation No. 160 and a few GTRs and they could make some additions to this document to clarify the meaning of the various definitions.
