6. The expert from GTB withdrew ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2011/49. GRE agreed to remove this agenda item.
7. GRE considered ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2012/6 introduced by the expert from GTB, correcting the LED module definition in UN Regulation No. 48. GRE adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2012/6, not amended, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2012 sessions as part of Supplement 10 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48 (see paras. 12, 13, 14, 28 and 32).
8. The expert from GTB introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2012/16 revising the provisions for the reduction of geometric visibility angles for direction indicator lamps, stop lamps, front and rear position lamps and retro reflectors. GRE agreed to resume consideration of this subject at its next session on the basis of a revised proposal, including all relevant UN Regulations.
9. The expert from the Netherlands introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2012/22 clarifying the test conditions on the sensitivity requirements of the sensor system for automatic driving beam (ADB). GRE agreed, in principle, to the proposal and invited the expert from the Netherlands and the United Kingdom to prepare a revised proposal for consideration at the October 2012 session of GRE.
10. GRE considered GRE-67-25, presented by the expert from OICA, further clarifying the test conditions regarding the requirements for the sensitivity of the sensor system for ADB. GRE agreed to resume consideration on this subject at its October 2012 session on the basis of a revised official proposal, voluntarily prepared by the expert from OICA.
11. The expert from the Netherlands introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2012/23 clarifying the requirements for the mandatory manual override for ADB control. GRE agreed in principle with the proposal and invited the expert from the Netherlands to prepare a revised proposal on the basis of the comments received by the experts from OICA and Italy for the October 2012 session of GRE.
12. The expert from Japan introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2012/14 clarifying the definition of a “fixed position” in UN Regulation No. 48. Following the discussion, the expert from Japan introduced GRE-67-32 superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2012/14. GRE adopted GRE-67-32, as reproduced in Annex VI to the report, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their November 2012 sessions, as part of Supplement 10 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48 (see paras. 7, 13, 14, 28 and 32).
13. GRE considered GRE-67-04, tabled by the expert from Germany as well as proposals from CLEPA (GRE-67-28 and GRE-67-29) and from OICA (GRE-67-36) amending the requirements for conspicuity marking for heavy vehicles. Finally the expert from Germany introduced GRE-67-38, superseding GRE-67-04. However the experts from EC, France and Italy expressed their reservation on voting for this proposal. GRE adopted GRE-67-38, superseding GRE-67-04, GRE-67-28, GRE-67-29 and GRE-67-36, as reproduced in Annex VI to the report. The secretariat was requested to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their November 2012 sessions, as part of Supplement 10 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48 (see paras. 7, 12, 14, 28 and 32) and also to have a final review at the next session of GRE.
14. GRE considered GRE-67-08 and GRE-67-26, aligning UN Regulation No. 48 with UN Regulation No. 121 (Location and Identification of hand controls, tell-tales and indicators) and eliminating inconsistency with the hazard warning light tell-tale. GRE adopted GRE-67-26, as reproduced in Annex VI to the report, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their November 2012 sessions, as part of Supplement 10 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 48 (see paras. 7, 12, 13, 28 and 32).
15. GRE considered GRE-67-13, tabled by the expert from Japan, proposing the suppression of the mandatory fitting of sensors for the adaptive main beam and Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS) to detect retro-reflectors.
