27. The expert from Spain introduced GRSP-72-01, on behalf of the Technical Service Group, aiming to clarify the approach of the production qualification testing phase. At the same time, the expert from CLEPA introduced GRSP-72-16 to update the references to EN Standards for toxicity and flammability. GRSP adopted GRSP-72-01 and GRSP-72-16 as reproduced in annex V to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit both proposals as draft Supplement 9 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 129 on ECRS for consideration and vote at the June 2023 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1. It was also agreed that if further discussion was needed, the official document to the June 2023 session would be re-discussed at the May 2023 session of GRSP.

28. Referring to the decision taken under agenda item 5 (see paragraphs 10 to 13 above), GRSP considered GRSP-72-36 and resumed discussion on ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2021/26 as a parallel proposal to the UN Regulation submitted by the expert from CLEPA. Finally, GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2021/26 as amended by annex V to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as part of (see paragraph 27 above) draft Supplement 9 to the 03 series of UN Regulation No. 129 (ECRS) for consideration and vote at the June 2023 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.
