Revised version of the proposal from the CRS informal working group to include provisions for universal belted and specific-to-vehicle belted child restraint systems under Phase 3 of UN Regulation No. 129.

Revised proposal for the 03 series of amendments under Phase 3 of Regulation No. 129 (GRSP-61-17 and subsequent revisions) as developed during the 67th CRS informal group session. This proposal introduces provisions for universal belted and specific-to-vehicle belted child restraint systems under Phase 3 of UN Regulation No. 129.

With each development phase (series of amendments), UN R129 has expanded its scope in terms of child restraint applications (e.g., i-Size, specific vehicle ISOFIX, i-Size booster seat, specific vehicle booster seat, etc.). Paragraph 3.2.2. requires the applicant for type approval to declare the intended application or combination of applications. CLEPA proposes new language to specify the various possible combinations and related requirements in order to maintain consistency between phases 1 and 2 and phase 3.

Presentation to initiate discussions on the impact of storage compartments, such as in vehicle floors, on the safe installation and use of i-Size CRS.
