34. [The expert from France] concluded by introducing for information only, a draft proposal (GRSP-53-26), that would be submitted as an official document for the December 2013 session of GRSP. The experts from Japan introduced GRSP-53-20, supporting the configuration of the test proposed by the IWG. However, he argued that there are no evidence showing difference in the age and gender ratio of occupants due to the difference of crash configuration between the FWRB and offset deformable barrier (ODB) tests. The expert from Germany raised similar concerns. GRSP agreed, to resume discussion on this agenda item at its December 2013 session, based on an official proposal submitted by the IWG incorporating the comments received and further outcomes of the IWG.
