50. The expert from IRU introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2010/14 underlining the need to focus in future on the reduction of the CO2 emissions rather than emissions of gaseous pollutants. GRPE preferred to continue its ongoing work on both, the further reduction of pollutants and CO2 emissions and referred the policy issue to WP.29 for consideration and advice. GRPE agreed to keep this subject on the agenda of its next session.

40. The World Forum noted the contents of the proposal by IRU (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRPE/2010/14) and confirmed the importance of reducing CO2 emissions, which is already part of its programme of work. Nevertheless, WP.29 underlined the need to continue its ongoing work on the further reduction of pollutants. In this respect, the proposal by IRU was not supported by the World Forum.
