GRSP | Session 72 | 5-9 Dec 2022

19. GRSP discussed GRSP-72-39 under agenda item 24(b) (see paragraph 53).

57. The expert from Finland, on behalf of the informal working group on the Database for Exchange of Approval documentation (DETA) introduced GRSP-72-14 following a request of IWG DETA to Working Groups to clarify the UN Regulations in which the Unique Identifier (UI) marking applies. He also introduced GRSP-72-15 that provides a table for the list of UN Regulations under the responsibility of GRSP, that can be completed with the required information. The expert from CLEPA introduced GRSP-72-38 with an initial assessment of the requested list of UN Regulations. He clarified that UN Regulation No. 16 (Safety-belts) would prohibit the use of UI, because additional symbols to identify the type of safety-belt, energy absorber and retractor would be needed. He thus introduced a proposal of amendment to UN Regulation No. 16 (Safety-belts) prohibiting UI use (GRSP-72-39). GRSP requested the secretariat to distribute GRSP-72-39 with an official symbol at its May 2023 session. At the same time GRSP agreed to resume discussion on GRSP-72-15 at its May 2023 session based on the feedback provided by the expert from OICA.
