45. Upon the decision of WP.29 (see reports ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1099, para. 69 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1102, para. 73), GRSG considered both official documents ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/32 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/64 proposing amendments to UN Rule No. 2 and to UN Rule No. 1 respectively. These documents align the provisions with the corresponding European Union directives. GRSG noted a number of amendments as reflected in Annex VI of the meeting report [see the report addendum GRSG/83/Add.1]. The Chair volunteered to inform WP.29 on the results and requested the secretariat to submit the amendments to WP.29 for consideration at its session in June 2013 (see WP.29-160-11 and WP.29-160-12).

82. The representative of Italy, Chair of GRSG, informed the World Forum that his group had endorsed two corrigenda to the draft amendments of UN Rules Nos. 1 and 2, respectively WP.29-160-11 to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/64 (UN Rule No. 1-environment) and WP.29-160-12 to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/32 (UN Rule No. 2-roadworthiness). The representative of the United Kingdom, Chair of GRRF, recalled that his group recommended deferring the adoption of the amendment to UN Rule No. 2 awaiting the final revision of the corresponding EU Directive 2010/48/EU to fully harmonize them. The representative of the Russian Federation noted that other GRs endorsed, in principle, the two proposals. He volunteered to update them in cooperation with CITA and other CPs to the Agreement, integrating the comments received.
