14. GRSP resumed discussion on ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2019/15, superseded by GRSP-71-11-Rev.2, tabled by the expert from OICA on rearward faced CRS in rear seats in combination with a frontal airbag. The proposal aims to add a third alternative to the already existing airbag switch off or the automatic detection of a rearward faced CRS. This third alternative foresees that the frontal airbag remains activated in the case of specific CRS only when tested together with the frontal airbag. This concept was agreed during the December 2021 session of GRSP by the expert from EC and further agreed on during this May 2022 session by the experts from Germany, the Netherlands and CI. However, the experts from Italy and Sweden raised a study reservation. Therefore, GRSP requested the secretariat to distribute GRSP-71-11-Rev.2 with an official symbol at its December 2022 session. 14.
