During its 75th session, GRSP approved a new UN Regulation on ORS installation based on its decision to split UN R16 into three separate type-approval regulations. Pursuant to discussions on document GRSP/2023/32 (proposal to limit slack of the safety-belt buckle in rear seats), Japan agreed to prepare a new series of amendments for this new UN Regulation on ORS installation.
18. The expert from Japan introduced GRSP-74-24-Rev.5 amending ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2023/32 to prevent the negative effects of slack from the buckle of the safety belt on vehicle occupants. GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2023/32 as amended by annex IV of the session report. However, since the work on splitting the UN Regulation was on hold, the secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as the draft 10 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 16 to the next appropriate WP.29 and AC.1 sessions, indicated by the group of experts on restructuring the UN Regulation.
