16. The expert from CLCCR tabled a revised proposal that increases the number of manoeuvring lamps on trailers according to the length of the trailer (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2022/25/Rev.1 and GRE-88-24). Following an in-depth discussion, GRE adopted the proposal as contained in GRE-88-24, subject to the replacement of “must” with “shall” in paragraph 6.26.2. and decided to include in a new 09 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48.

21. The Chair summarized that the following draft amendments were adopted at this session and would become part of the draft 09 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48:

1. Headlamp levelling (paragraph 8 above);
2. Device transition (paragraph 11);
3. Park condition (paragraph 19);
4. Manoeuvring lamps on trailers (paragraph 16);
5. Visibility of red light towards the front and/or white light toward the rear (paragraph 18); and
6. Transitional provisions (paragraph 20).

22. GRE decided to submit the above proposals for consideration and vote at the March 2024 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1 as a new 09 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48. At its next session in October 2023, GRE agreed to editorially confirm these proposals without modifying their substantial content and requirements. To this end, GRE suggested that a consolidated text of the draft 09 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48 be prepared.

23. The expert from CLCCR proposed an increase in the number of manoeuvring lamps on trailers according to the length of the trailer (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2022/25). GRE noted comments made by several experts from contracting parties. GRE invited CLCCR to take these comments into account and to submit a revised document for consideration at the next session.
