WP.29 | Session 157 | 26-29 Jun 2012

11. The World Forum noted the revised programme of work and availability of documentation (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/1/Rev.1). WP.29 representatives were requested to review it and to communicate to the secretariat any amendments deemed necessary. The secretariat presented the draft calendar of sessions for 2013 (WP.29-157-01) to be confirmed by Conference Services. The World Forum agreed with the request made by the Chair of GRPE to add a special session for GRPE (adoption of the new draft UN GTR on Worldwide harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedures (WLTP)), to be held in conjunction with the November 2013 session of WP.29 (Thursday afternoon). The secretariat was requested to modify the calendar accordingly and submit it for approval to the Conference Services. The secretariat also presented WP.29-157-02 containing the list of informal working groups of WP.29 and its GRs. The World Forum agreed that the informal working groups with a suspended work programme should be deleted from this list with their re-activation requiring endorsement by the World Forum. WP.29 representatives were invited to update the document with respect to the expiration date of the mandate for each informal working group.

12. The secretariat introduced WP.29-157-07 containing a template document to be used when preparing official documents for the World Forum and its subsidiary bodies. WP.29 adopted the document and requested its representatives and GR experts to use it when preparing official documents. The secretariat was requested to post the document at: www.unece.org/trans/main/wp29/wp29wgs/wp29gen/wp29transsub.html.

13. The secretariat presented WP.29-157-15/Rev.1 and WP.29-157-24 containing a proposal with instructions for posting working papers by the respective Chairs and/or secretaries of the informal working groups on the website. The secretariat offered its support for the use of this system and clarified that the Chairs and secretaries only need to request a user name and password to operate the system. WP.29 agreed with the proposal.
