Japan submitted comments on RXSWIN assignment at the 38th CS/OTA IWG. Q.1 asks whether, when a type approval is extended from UN R156-00 to UN R156-01, RXSWIN may be assigned at extension time, and if a UN Regulation refers to RE.3 Annex 7 through a supplementary amendment after UN R156-01 transitional provisions become applicable, whether RXSWIN is assigned at that time. Q.2 asks whether Approval Authorities other than the Authority granting approval are expected to have access to the OEM’s Auditable Register, as access information appears provided only to the Approval Authority concerned through paragraph 9.5.2. Q.3 asks whether software updates affecting type approval can be performed under Regulations that do not reference RE.3 Annex 7.
