105. The representative of FEMFM recalled the purpose of the three proposals in ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRVA/2023/13, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRVA/2023/14 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRVA/2023/15. He presented their most recent amendment proposal (GRVA-17-45) considering the text proposed by the representative of CLEPA, adopted at the last session. The proposal received some comments, including from the representative of FIA who inquired why access to safety instruction would require the collection of personal data for access to the website hosting them. He noted the difficulties related to addressing internet coverage in the WP.29 framework and consulted ITU. The representative of ITU mentioned that the solution envisaged was not workable. The representative of Switzerland proposed to envisage a footnote like it exist in UN Regulation No. 65 acknowledging a specific role to national authorities. GRVA agreed to resume consideration of this item in January 2024.

118. The expert from CLEPA introduced the proposals for amendments to the 01 and 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 90 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRVA/2023/11 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRVA/2023/12, as amended by GRVA-16-14), submitted by CLEPA and Italy. He informed GRVA that these proposals aimed at introducing amendments for calliper/ drum set packaging and at allowing, as an option, to report the approved vehicles/brakes/axle information as well as fitting instructions through digital format (e.g. Quick Response (QR) code, website).

119. The experts from France, Germany and UK supported the amendments.

120. The expert from FIA asked what would happen in case there was no available internet connection. He added that the consumer should not be asked for personal data when he asks for the QR code.

121. The expert from CLEPA responded that the proposal did not prevent that instructions are made available in printable format. He agreed that it should be avoided that any person is asked to provide personal data.

121. GRVA adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRVA/2023/11 and requested the secretariat to submit it as a supplement to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 90 to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their November 2023 sessions.

122. GRVA adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRVA/2023/12, as amended by GRVA-16-14, and requested the secretariat to submit it as a supplement to the 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 90 to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their November 2023 sessions.
