WP.29/2015/46
Proposal for Supplement 6 to the 07 series of amendments to Regulation No. 14

Proposal to introduce provisions for ISOFIX in convertible cars, to exempt vehicles with one seating position per row from the ISOFIX provisions of UN R14 and to correct an editorial error in Supplement 4 to the 07 series of the regulation, as adopted by the Working Party on Passive Safety (GRSP) at its 54th session. This proposal supersedes the earlier proposal submitted to WP.29 (document WP.29/2014/34) which was returned by WP.29 to GRSP for further consideration.

12. The expert from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2015/3, aimed at improving the provisions concerning vehicles of category M1 having only one seat row and introducing a new definition of “bucket seat”. The expert from the Netherlands noted that ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2015/46, submitted for consideration and voting at the June 2015 session of WP.29 was amending the same provisions and that further proposal of amendments would create confusion. The expert from OICA withdrew ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2015/3. Finally, GRSP agreed to resume discussion on this subject at its December 2015 session and requested the secretariat to keep ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2015/3 as a reference in the agenda of that session.

14. GRSP noted the decision taken by the World Forum during the June 2014 session to refer back to GRSP ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2014/34 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1110, para. 52) to further consider the minimum number of ISOFIX anchorages. The expert from OICA introduced GRSP-56-11-Rev.1, amending ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2014/34, superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2014/18 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2013/15 and addressing the widest range of possible vehicle types and configurations. GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2014/34 as amended by Annex II to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration and vote at their June 2015 sessions, as draft Supplement 6 to the 07 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 14.

WP.29 | Session 163 | 24-27 Jun 2014

52. The World Forum agreed to refer ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2014/34 (agenda item 4.6.1) back to GRSP for further consideration.

The decision to postpone was due to a European Commission identification of a possible inconsistency in text with regard to paragraph 5.3.8.2.
