76th GRE session (25-28 Oct 2016)

Agenda item 8. | Pending amendment proposals

Agenda item 4. | Simplification of lighting and light-signalling Regulations

10. GRE reviewed and unanimously adopted the pending amendment proposals so as to consolidate the existing Regulations before they are frozen and superseded by three new Regulations that are in drafting:

ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/68,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/ 2013/69,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/71,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/72,
ECE/TRANS/ WP.29/2013/75¹,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/76,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/79,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/83,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/85,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/ 2013/86,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/87,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/88,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/89,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/90²,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/ 2013/92³,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/93⁴,
ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/94,
ECE/TRANS/ WP.29/2014/31,

ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2016/14⁵
and Annex IV to ECE/TRANS/ WP.29/GRE/75.

The secretariat was requested to consolidate these proposals, according to the principle ‘one WP.29 document per Regulation’, and to submit them to WP.29 and the Administrative Committee of the 1958 Agreement (AC.1) for consideration and vote at their March 2017 sessions. The experts from GTB, IEC and SAE volunteered to assist the secretariat by verifying the consolidated amendment proposals.

¹	Except for the part which was already adopted by WP.29 as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/75/Rev.1 and Add.1 (note by the secretariat).
²	Except for the part which was already adopted by WP.29 as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/90/Rev.1 (note by the secretariat).

⁴	Except for the part which was already adopted by WP.29 as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/93/Rev.1 (note by the secretariat).
⁵	Except for Section B on Regulation No. 45 which was already submitted to WP.29 as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2016/77 (note by the secretariat).

34. GRE addressed this issue in conjunction with agenda item 4 (para. 10 above).

74th GRE session (20-23 Oct 2015)

Agenda item 8. | Pending amendment proposals

36. GRE recalled that, at the previous session, it approved several amendment proposals to various Regulations, but agreed to postpone a decision to submit them to WP.29 for consideration, awaiting other possible proposals for amendments to the same Regulations in the course of the simplification process (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/73, paras. 21, 33 and 35). GRE decided to keep these amendment proposals pending.

73rd GRE session (13-17 Apr 2015)

Agenda item 7. (j) | Regulation No. 112 (Headlamps emitting an asymmetrical passing-beam)

33. The expert from GTB proposed to correct editorial errors in the approval markings of Annex 2 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2015/16). GRE approved this proposal, but agreed to postpone to the next session a decision to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote, awaiting other possible proposals for amendments to this Regulation in the course of the simplification process.
