7. The expert from EC, Chair of the IWG on Vulnerable Road Users (VRU), introduced the IWG status report (GRSG-128-32). On behalf of IWG, he introduced a list of issues for the possible consideration of GRSG (GRSG-128-15). Therefore, he suggested extending the IWG mandate until October 2025 to work on approval of Separate Technical Units for the relevant UN Regulations and on the list of issues mentioned. Therefore, he introduced a proposal for new Terms of References (ToR) (GRSG-128-36-Rev.3) for consideration and endorsement of GRSG. The expert from OICA assumed that the mandate covered by the current ToR was concluded and that IWG should be dissolved.
8. GRSG adopted the new ToR (GRSG-128-36-Rev.3), as reproduced in annex II to the session report, with an extension of the mandate of the IWG until October 2025, and sought endorsement from WP.29 at its November 2024 session.

8. The expert from EC, Chair of the IWG on Vulnerable Road Users (VRU), introduced the list of the remaining IWG issues (GRSG-130-28) for justifying a possible extension of the mandate and terms of references (ToR). He introduced GRSG-130-07 with the revised, proposed ToR. The expert from CLEPA (IWG secretary) introduced the IWG status report (GRSG-130-06): (a) underlining that the approval of Separate Technical Units (STU) for the relevant UN Regulations that would not be finalized by autumn 2025, and (b) noting that an extension was envisaged until October 2026. Therefore, GRSG agreed to take a decision on the conclusions of GRSG-130-28, and on the activities which should be still developed by IWG. The expert from OICA endorsed the activity on STU. GRSG concluded that all the remaining IWG activities were no longer a priority and decided to dissolve the IWG. It was further agreed that a Task Force (TF) on developing STU provisions was not needed and that GRSG-130-35 was superseded. Moreover, GRSG agreed that the experts from OICA or CLEPA would be focal points for the development of future amendments on relevant STU UN Regulations.
