47. GRSG considered in detail the proposal and agreed on the actions for each item, as reflected in the revised document GRSG-105-39-Rev.2. The IWVTA ambassador volunteered to report back to the informal group. GRSG agreed to resume consideration of this subject at its next session.

41. GRSG reviewed again the list of all candidate UN Regulations identified for the IWVTA scheme under the responsibility of GRSG and agreed on the actions as reflected in the revised document GRSG-104-39-Rev.3. The IWVTA ambassador volunteered to report back to the informal group. He announced the intention of IWVTA to distribute to all Contracting Parties a questionnaire on a detailed review of Lists A and B in draft UN Regulation No. 0. GRSG agreed to resume consideration of this subject at its next session.

51. The expert from OICA, in his capacity of GRSG Ambassador to the IWG on IWVTA, informed GRSG about the progress made during the recent meetings of the IWGs (GRSG-109-25). He recalled the remaining open issue of the clarification of the scope of UN Regulation No. 116 (GRSG-104-39-Rev.3 and GRSG-108-49).

52. A number of experts were of the opinion that the installation on vehicles of categories M1 and N1 of an immobilizer or antitheft devices was mandatory, but the installation of the alarm systems was considered as optional. As paragraph 1.8. of UN Regulation No. 116 (including its recommendation under footnote 3/) was subject to the choice of application by the Contracting Parties and therefore not clear, GRSG welcomed the suggestion by the expert from OICA to set up a specific Task Force to clarify this subject. The Chair invited all interested experts to contact the GRSG Ambassador (e-mail: ofontaine@oica.net). GRSG agreed to resume consideration of this subject at its next session in April 2016.
