Proposal to:
Proposal to amend Article 2, paragraph 2 to clarify that where a Certificate of Compliance required under a UN Regulation and issued by an Approval Authority of another Contracting Party is accepted by a Contracting Party, the Approval Authority granting the corresponding type approval shall remain responsible for all aspects of that type approval. The amendment addresses management systems and their Certificates of Compliance used in UN Regulations such as UN R155 and UN R156.
Document explains concerns about the approach in GRVA/2026/30 to require a single Approval Authority to issue certificates of compliance for Cyber Security Management Systems and Automated Driving Systems Management Systems and vehicle type approval. The proposed changes would lead to double or triple approvals of management systems, creating administrative burden and unresolved legal consequences regarding challenged certificates of compliance and their effects on other issued certificates for the same management system. The submission proposes clarifying existing wording, documenting implications of challenged certificates, and adding a new paragraph 5.1.5. to UN R155 permitting mutual agreement between Approval Authorities regarding certificate usage.
Proposal to renew the terms for the Informal Working Group on Cyber Security and Software Updates under GRVA. The IWG shall maintain official documents on cyber security and software updates, develop amendments to UN R155 and UN R156 including provisions on software identification, support application across Global Technical Regulations, and provide opportunities for participants to share implementation experience. The IWG will be chaired by the United Kingdom, United States, and Japan, with OICA providing technical secretariat, and will operate until November 2029.
Status report on activities of the IWG on CS/OTA since the 25th GRVA session. The IWG reviewed proposals for amendment of UN R155 and its interpretation document for multi-stage vehicles, proposals for approval-authority arrangements and Certificates of Compliance for UN R155 and R156, proposals integrating software identification and update text across several UNRs outlined in RE.3, component and STU approval concepts, and remote operation and automated driving systems. The IWG proposes updating regulatory text and interpretation documents for UN R155, revisions to software identification and update text across several regulations, and revised Terms of Reference for a mandate till November 2029.
Document presents parking accident data from China showing high-frequency accident factors including static obstacles and vulnerable road users, with 45% of parking lot accidents occurring on driveways and 40% involving children. Establishes recommendations for a Parking Task Force to research product requirements for Assisted Parking and Automated Parking, evaluate applicability of current UN regulations, and promote formulation or revision of regulations. Identifies technical differences between driving and parking functions, including separate development routes, earlier mass production timelines for parking automation, and specific test method requirements not fully covered by current UN regulations.
Status report on the ADS Workshop since the 25th GRVA, covering two meetings held in June and July 2026. Task 3 addressed interpretation and guidelines, with nearly 60 change requests discussed and concluded during the Brussels meeting. Four types of changes were needed to GRVA/2026/24: consolidation of approved changes, addition of GTR version references, revised number formatting, and editorial improvements. Two informal documents are provided for clarity: a clean revision (GRVA-26-09e) and a listing of substantive changes (GRVA-26-09a1e). The workshop seeks GRVA approval for submission to WP.29 in November 2026 for adoption in March 2027. The revision applies alphabetical headings aligned with ADS regulations structure, alphanumeric subheadings for explanations, and deletes consecutive numbering to avoid confusion with GTR and UN R185 paragraph numbers.
