10. Recalling her presentation at the previous GRSG session (GRSG-105-32), the expert from Sweden introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2014/6 proposing new test requirements for automatic fire suppression systems in the engine and/or heater compartment of buses and coaches. GRSG welcomed the document and noted general support. Following the discussion on the scope and purpose of the new requirements, GRSG agreed to have a final review of this subject at its next session in October 2014. In this respect, the Chair invited all experts to reflect on the possible adoption of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2014/6 as optional requirements through a Supplement to the 06 series of amendments or as mandatory requirements through a new series of amendments together with appropriate transitional provisions, including amendments to the markings.
