3.5.4. Working Party on Brakes and Running Gear (GRRF) (Eighty-fifth session, 11 December 2017 and Eighty-sixth session, 12-16 February 2018)

55. The Chair of GRRF reported on the results achieved by GRRF during its eighty-fifth and its eighty-sixth sessions (for details, see the reports of the sessions ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/85 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/86).

56. The GRRF chair further informed WP.29 that GRRF had proposed to develop a new Regulation for light vehicles on the basis of the work of the IWG on AEBS instead of inserting provisions in UN Regulation No. 131. WP.29 agreed with this proposal.

57. The GRRF chair mentioned that document ECE/TRANS/WP29/2018/35 would still contain square brackets. WP.29 agreed to remove the square brackets and to agree on transitional provision dates (as reflected in para. 92).
