5. | UN Regulation No. 14 (Anchorages of safety-belts)

12. The expert from OICA introduced a presentation (GRSP-74-20) to reintroduce a proposal (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2023/28, amended by GRSP-74-19) that allowed occupants to use alternative seating positions only if this was not in conflict with any other UN Regulation. The expert from Germany recommended the need to start studies and to reflect on this subject to introduce a proper amendment. The expert from France agreed. The expert from the Netherland stated that an adoption of the proposal was premature. He added that the topic was relevant and suggested focusing on broader perspectives (e.g. autonomous vehicles and new interior layouts). Finally, GRSP agreed to establish a group of interested experts led by Germany and to organize a workshop (managed by OICA). Experts from contracting parties were invited to join the discussion and to also table concerns.
