21. Recalling the discussion at the previous session of GRPE, the Chairman of the informal group on Worldwide harmonized Motorcycle emission Test Cycle (WMTC) introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2010/10 proposing to introduce limit values into gtr No. 2. He reported that the discussions on the proposal were still ongoing on the following three issues:
(i) final set of limit values,
(ii) reference fuel and
(iii) durability requirements.

He announced his intention to hold a further meeting in Brussels on 13-14 September 2010 to resolve the remaining open issues. He expected to submit the final proposal to GRPE for consideration at its next session.

22. The expert from IMMA raised concerns (GRPE-60-04) and suggested improving the text of ECE/TRANS/WP.2/GRPE/2010/10.
