This informal document aims at correcting and clarifying the draft amendments to Regulation No. 110 as proposed in WP.29/2013/101. At its November 2013 session, the World Forum WP.29 is expected to consider and adopt draft Supplement 1 to the 01 series of amendments to Regulation No. 110, inserting new provisions for motor vehicles using Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) in their propulsion system. During the last session, GRSG agreed to have a final review of the proposal.

39. Referring to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/101, the expert from the Netherlands introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/28 clarifying the type approval provisions for vehicles equipped with Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) propulsion systems. GRSG noted a list of editorial corrections (GRSG-105-02) to be inserted into ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/101. GRSG adopted the proposed amendments as reproduced in WP.29-161-05 and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2013 sessions as a Corrigendum to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/101 (draft Supplement 1 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 110).
