31. The expert from France gave a presentation (GRSP-52-12) to show the risks of child ejection in roll-over accidents. Accordingly, he introduced GRSP-52-11-Rev.1 (amending ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2012/21). He clarified that the proposal would not prevent the installation of shield systems in favour of harness systems to restrain the child on the seat, but rather it would introduce improved overturning test procedures to reduce the risk of child ejection. GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2012/21 as amended by Annex V to this report. [Please note that Annex V is corrected by document GRSP/52/Corr.1.] The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration and vote at their June 2013 sessions as draft Supplement 7 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 44.

32. The experts from France, the Netherlands and the Russian Federation withdrew ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2012/22, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2012/15 and GRSP-52-04 respectively.

33. Referring to the decision of the Administrative Committee for the coordination of Work (AC.2) at the November 2012 session (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1099, para. 12), the expert from Germany informed GRSP about the action undertaken by the Type Approval Authority concerning the belt guide device. He explained that a letter drafted by his Administration was sent to the Type Approval Authority of Hungary requesting for the withdrawal of the type approval of the belt guide device granted as a child restraint system according to UN Regulation No. 44. Meanwhile, he informed GRSP that his Administration also notified the Rapid Alert System for Non-Food Consumer Products of the European Union (RAPEX) of a dangerous product. The expert from Hungary agreed to keep informed GRSP about the decision of the Type Approval Authority of his country on this issue.

Proposal adopted.
