41. The expert from Germany, on behalf of the Chair of the group of interested experts on REESS, introduced the latest status report of this group, its revised terms of reference and a new proposed mandate as an informal working group (GRSP-52-05). He clarified that these actions would be needed to cover electric vehicles of category L into UN Regulation No. 100 and to replace the expired informal working group on Electric Safety (ELSA). The expert from Japan made a presentation (GRSP-52-09) proposing to establish a new UN Regulation for vehicle category L, rather than amending UN Regulation No. 100, because of its different structure and safety concept from categories M/N. 42. Finally, GRSP agreed to establish the new informal working group and to seek endorsement of WP.29 at its March 2013 session. Accordingly, GRSP adopted the terms of reference of the group, contained in GRSP-52-05 and reproduced in Annex VII to this report supporting this request. |
