Proposal to establish Chain of Custody provisions for Automotive Life Cycle Assessment specifying five models—Identity Preserved, Segregation, Controlled Blending, Mass Balance, and Book and Claim—representing standardized approaches for collecting and managing company-specific information across supply chain settings. The Book and Claim model shall not be used. Government authorities reserve rights to define implementation rules specifying how Chain of Custody approaches are applied, based on alignment with global standards such as ISO and the GHG Protocol and the upcoming revision of the EF Recommendation (2279/2021). Minimum requirements shall be established for Mass Balance application to prevent diverse interpretations and misuse.
The IWG on A-LCA will discuss agreement on a document package to be submitted to GRPE, review the latest CoC covering general aspects including pre-consumer scrap, electricity/energy modeling, and OVC-HEV/FCV and battery/powertrain replacement, and determine next steps.
This baseline draft for UN R48 (10 series of amendments) establishes uniform provisions for vehicle lighting and light-signalling device installation. The document reflects all modifications agreed at GRE-94 and incorporates an updated proposal from IEC regarding technological neutrality for LS devices. Key additions include provisions for work lamps to be included after formal WP.29 adoption in June 2026, updated tables for positioning and geometric visibility angles (Annexes 18–19), and revised terminology replacing “dipped-beam/main-beam” with “passing-beam/driving-beam” throughout. Open points address apparent surface visibility against stop lamps and consistency with IWVTA transitional provisions, with transitional provisions for the 10 series specifying acceptance dates and phase-in periods to be finalized.
Proposal to amend para. 3.5.3.1. to delete reference to colour verification of retro-reflecting optical units, amend para. 5.1.2. to reduce required samples from ten to eight, amend para. 5.1.3.1. to reduce samples from ten to eight and divide remaining six samples into three groups of two, insert para. 5.1.3.1.1. specifying Classes IA, IB, IIIA and IIIB, amend para. 5.1.7. to delete sample columns i and j from Tables 4 and 5 and delete the weathering resistance test row, and amend reference to Part 4 of Annex 6 to Part 5 of Annex 6 in both tables.
Proposal to amend UN R86 on approval markings and testing requirements:
The agenda addresses correction of errors and omissions in UN Regulation 150-01, including a consolidated proposal merging GRE-92-18, GRE-94-02/Rev.1, GRE-94-11, and GRE-94-24, and a decision on addition of Part 7 on Colour-fastness to Annex 6. Baseline documents for UN Regulations Nos. 48, 53, 74, and 86 will be reviewed, along with transitional provisions. The group will consider visibility of direction indicators and Korean concerns regarding rear direction indicator lamp height. The 79th meeting is scheduled for Tokyo in September 2026.
