29. GRE took note of the activities of other WP.29 Working Parties (GRs) to introduce new definitions for agricultural trailers and towed machinery into the Consolidated Resolution (R.E.3) (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2014/25) and considered two alternative proposals submitted by the expert from the European Commission (GRE-72-04). GRE expressed preference for the first option and adopted the proposal as contained in Annex X to the report. The secretariat was requested to submit it to WP.29 for consideration at its June 2015 session as well as to inform other GRs about this proposal.

35. The secretariat introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2014/25 on a first draft of new definitions for agricultural and forestry vehicles that have been prepared by the Working Party on Lighting and Light-Signalling (GRE) Informal Group on Agricultural Vehicle Lighting Installation (AVLI).

36. The expert from EC presented GRSG-107-07 on alternative definitions to those reflected in ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2014/25 to align the wording with the EU legislation.

37. GRSG noted no objection and agreed that both proposals should further be considered at the next GRE session.

50. The secretariat introduced a draft proposal (GRPE-69-18) by GRE to introduce in the consolidated Resolution on the construction of vehicles (R.E.3) the following new vehicle categories: agricultural trailer and towed agricultural machinery. He reported that the GRE experts preferred to involve experts from other Working Parties subsidiary to WP.29 and requested the secretariat to circulate this first draft proposal. Comments may be submitted by email to the GRE secretary (GRE@unece.org)

51. Upon the request of GRE, GRSG considered a proposal to insert into the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3) new categories T, R, and S of agricultural vehicles such as agricultural trailers and towed machinery (GRSG-106-34). GRSG noted a number of amendments to the document and agreed to resume consideration of this subject at its next session in October 2014. The secretariat was requested to distribute GRSG-106-34-Rev.1 with an official symbol.

51. GRSP noted GRSP-55-27, or the possible insertion of new categories of vehicles (e.g. agricultural trailers and towed machinery) into the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3). It was noted that the proposal had been designed by the Working Party on Lighting and Light-Signalling (GRE) in updating UN Regulation No. 86 (Installation of lighting and light-signalling devices for agricultural tractors) and that GRE agreed to circulate the proposal to all Working Parties for comments. GRSP invited its experts to provide comments on the proposal to the secretariat, before the October 2014 session of GRE.

56. The secretariat introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2014/25 (initially proposed by the Working Party on Lighting and Light-Signalling (GRE)), as amended by GRRF-78-03 and introducing in to R.E.3, new categories of agricultural vehicles. The expert from the Russian Federation commented that the definitions proposed may create overlap especially when an agricultural vehicle could be classified as a Non Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) and vice versa. The Chair of GRRF requested the experts to send their comments on this proposal to the secretariat.
