GRSG adopted the proposed amendments as reproduced in WP.29-161-05 and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2013 sessions as a Corrigendum to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/101 (draft Supplement 1 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 110).

[Proposal returned to GRE for further consideration.]

[Proposal returned to GRE for further consideration.]

54. The World Forum, in considering informal documents WP.29-161-06 and WP.29-161-11, agreed to refer the official documents listed under agenda items 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.6.4, 4.6.5, 4.6.8, 4.6.9, 4.6.12, 4.6.16, 4.6.17, 4.6.18, 4.6.19, 4.6.20, 4.6.21, 4.6.22, 4.6.23, 4.6.25, 4.6.26 and 4.6.27 back to GRE for further consideration.

86. Submitted for consideration and vote, the proposed draft UN GTR (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/120) was established in the UN Global Registry on 13 November 2013 by consensus vote of the following Contracting Parties present and voting: Australia, China, European Union (voting for Cyprus, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden and United Kingdom), India, Japan, Norway, Republic of Korea, Russian Federation, South Africa and Turkey.

87. The technical report (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/121) and the adopted proposal for the development of the UN GTR (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/AC.3/28) will be appended to the established UN GTR.

88. The representative of the United States of America abstained from voting because of the existence of a national pole side impact regulation that incorporates both the 50th percentile and the 5th percentile test dummy in his country. He added that the United States of America was not in a position to commit to proposing the GTR domestically because it included only a 50th percentile test dummy. In addition, the test procedure and injury criteria in the proposed UN GTR had yet to be demonstrated as at least as effective as the existing American standard. The representative of Canada also abstained from voting and gave a similar statement.

89. The representative of the EU volunteered to review the proposed amendments by the United States of America contained in WP.29-161-07 and to provide a written statement for the next session of GRSP that the EU is committed to discuss and, if possible, to address the issues at stake in the second phase of the programme.

90. The representative of India recognized the contribution of Australia in developing the UN GTR. However, he indicated that some areas of improvement need to be addressed, such as the harmonization of the World Side Impact Dummy (WorldSID) and impact test speeds with adequate tolerances.

91. A statement given by the representative of Australia is reproduced in Annex V to this report.

[Russia noted that its transposition of the regulation will be undertaken once its UN Regulation counterpart has been finalized.]

77. The secretariat presented the results of the World Forum for 2012 on the development of UN Regulations and UN GTR to make vehicles safer (WP.29-161-10) in 2012. WP.29 adopted WP.29-161-10 and requested the secretariat to reproduce it as Annex III to this report and to transmit it to the Inland Transport Committee (ITC).

[Proposal returned to GRE for further consideration.]

[Proposal returned to GRE for further consideration.]

54. The World Forum, in considering informal documents WP.29-161-06 and WP.29-161-11, agreed to refer the official documents listed under agenda items 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.6.4, 4.6.5, 4.6.8, 4.6.9, 4.6.12, 4.6.16, 4.6.17, 4.6.18, 4.6.19, 4.6.20, 4.6.21, 4.6.22, 4.6.23, 4.6.25, 4.6.26 and 4.6.27 back to GRE for further consideration.

117. The representative of the Republic of Korea presented WP.29-161-12 and WP.29-161-13 complementing his presentation on Vehicle Indoor Air Quality (VIAQ) given at the previous session of WP.29 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1104, para. 130). He invited AC.3 to evaluate the possibility of establishing an IWG with the aim to develop a new UN GTR by 2017. He added that Korea would be committed to chairing such a group.

118. The representative of EU appreciated the presentations, but advised to complete first the development of current tasks before starting new activities. He indicated that this issue may already have been addressed by current legislation. The representative of Canada underlined the importance of addressing potential health impacts related with VIAQ. He supported the idea to work in this area taking into consideration the advice of the EU. He suggested focusing on the identification of best practices and the collection of information before undertaking regulatory work. The Chair of GRPE (Germany) supported the considerations of EU and Canada. He stressed the need to collect information and to analyse the subject before deciding upon the need to develop a UN GTR, if CPs see the need for such a step. Recalling the purpose of WP.29-160-38, the representative of the Russian Federation underlined the importance of the impact of pollutants emitted in the atmosphere on VIAQ. He introduced information through document WP.29-161-22, and expressed readiness to present additional information to the March 2014 session of WP.29. He evoked the need of regulatory initiatives aiming at establishing environmental requirements for vehicle design with respect to ventilation, heating, air conditioning and cabin filters. He recalled the work on tyre and brake wear, which he had introduced in WP.29 in earlier sessions, and underlined the importance of taking a holistic approach. The representative of the United States of America stressed the need to distinguish between emissions from materials used in vehicle construction, which were the responsibility of another agency of his country, and emissions due to vehicle propulsion systems.

119. AC.3 invited all participants to collect information on this topic and requested the secretariat to keep this item on the agenda of the March 2014 session for further discussion.

117. The representative of the Republic of Korea presented WP.29-161-12 and WP.29-161-13 complementing his presentation on Vehicle Indoor Air Quality (VIAQ) given at the previous session of WP.29 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1104, para. 130). He invited AC.3 to evaluate the possibility of establishing an IWG with the aim to develop a new UN GTR by 2017. He added that Korea would be committed to chairing such a group.

118. The representative of EU appreciated the presentations, but advised to complete first the development of current tasks before starting new activities.

119. AC.3 invited all participants to collect information on this topic and requested the secretariat to keep this item on the agenda of the March 2014 session for further discussion.

102. The representative of EU introduced a proposal to amend the UN GTR on WLTP (WP.29-161-14) and to extend the mandate of the IWG until the end of 2015. The proposal contained an outline of the forthcoming activities, a road map and the structure of the WLTP IWG. The representative of Japan, co-sponsor of this activity, corroborated the proposal. AC.3 supported the activities for the development of the first amendment to the UN GTR and authorized the IWG to initiate its tasks. AC.3 requested the secretariat to distribute an updated version of WP.29-161-14, including the recommendations to be made in the extraordinary session of GRPE, with an official symbol for consideration at the March 2014 session of AC.3.

50. The representative of the EU, chairing the IWVTA subgroup on the review of the 1958 Agreement, informed the World Forum that a first proposal for amendments to the 1958 Agreement had been completed by the subgroup (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/134). He indicated that, after transmitting the proposal, the subgroup had convened again prior to the WP.29 session and that the majority of the pending issues had been solved (WP.29-161-15 superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/134). He provided WP.29 with a general overview on the development of the proposal (WP.29-161-16) and recalled certain major features aimed to increase the attractiveness of the revised 1958 Agreement: (i) the possibility to grant and recognize type approvals according to previous series of amendments to UN Regulations, (ii) the possibility of a CP to delegate its voting right to another CP and (iii) the possibility for a CP to vote in favour of a new UN Regulation but to apply the UN Regulation at a later time point. He reported that the main pending issue for WP.29 to consider was the need to modify the two-third majority threshold for adopting new UN Regulations and amendments to existing UN Regulations. He concluded his presentation by inviting all the CPs to analyse the proposal and to provide their feedback at the next session of WP.29 in March 2014. The subgroup should resolve the issues by the November 2014 session of WP.29. At the March 2015 session, WP.29 should be in a position to identify if unanimity can be achieved to amend the Agreement and to launch the formal procedure for the amendment of the Agreement by a CP. Revision 3 to the 1958 Agreement would then enter into force on March 2016.

51. WP.29 noted a general support on the development of the amendments to the Agreement and requested the secretariat to distribute WP.29-161-15 with an official symbol for consideration at its next session. WP.29 also noted that further amendments to WP.29-161-15 to resolve the pending issues, would be presented at the March 2014 session as an informal document.

50. The representative of the EU, chairing the IWVTA subgroup on the review of the 1958 Agreement, informed the World Forum that a first proposal for amendments to the 1958 Agreement had been completed by the subgroup (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/134). He indicated that, after transmitting the proposal, the subgroup had convened again prior to the WP.29 session and that the majority of the pending issues had been solved (WP.29-161-15 superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/134).

Revision 3 to the 1958 Agreement would then enter into force on March 2016.

51. WP.29 noted a general support on the development of the amendments to the Agreement and requested the secretariat to distribute WP.29-161-15 with an official symbol for consideration at its next session. WP.29 also noted that further amendments to WP.29-161-15 to resolve the pending issues, would be presented at the March 2014 session as an informal document.

48. The representative of France, chairing the IWG on IWVTA, gave a general overview of the outcome of the two meetings held in Paris and Bonn prior to the WP.29 session. The representative of Japan, chairing the IWVTA subgroup on the development of UN Regulation No. 0, reported on the group’s work progress (WP.29-161-17). He recalled that the main objective of the IWVTA was the extension of the mutual recognition of vehicle systems and components to whole vehicles. He added that the subgroup recognized that this objective could not be achieved in a single step. UN Regulation No. 0 would thus allow, in a first step, a partial IWVTA limited to M1 category of vehicles. This partial type approval would need completion by national or regional approvals. At a future point, a complete whole vehicle approval would be possible. He described the working assumptions concerning the rights and obligations of the Contracting Parties (CPs) applying UN Regulation No. 0 and that it was foreseen to annually update UN Regulation No. 0. He presented the structure of UN Regulation No. 0 and two tentative lists with UN Regulations for further review that would need to be complied with for obtaining a Whole Vehicle Type Approval. List A contained thirty-nine UN Regulations that could already be included in the first step of the partial IWVTA. List B contained fourteen UN Regulations that would need amendment before their inclusion into list A. The representative of Japan also reported on the foreseen evolution of UN Regulation No. 0 and highlighted that the ultimate goal of IWVTA was the universal Whole Vehicle Type Approval mutually recognized by all CPs applying UN Regulation No. 0 without any additional national requirements. An additional further step would include vehicle categories other than M1. He concluded his presentation by indicating that the subgroup intended to complete the drafting of the partial IWVTA requirements by March 2016 and announced that the next meeting of the subgroup was scheduled to be held in Japan on 21-23 January 2014. He added that the latest version of draft UN Regulation No. 0 was available.

49. The representative of EU supported this process and the efforts achieved. He underlined the need for agreement on the list of UN Regulations to be included in UN Regulation No. 0. The representative of OICA joined the EU in this support and added that the IWVTA was of the highest importance for the automotive industry.

45. The representative of Japan, Vice-Chair of the IWG on IWVTA, reported on the work progress made during the meetings held in Moscow prior to the WP.29 session (WP.29-163-19). He underlined the need to distribute a questionnaire to be sent to all countries/REIO (regional economic integrated organizations) participating in WP.29 on the difficulty with the proposed UN Regulations included in UN R0 and on the procedure for spare parts (WP.29-163-20 and WP.29-163-21). He proposed the insertion of a new column in the status document of the Agreement to list minimum acceptable versions of UN Regulations by Contracting Parties which accept the IWVTA of limited recognition. He sought the consent of WP.29 to use English as the only language for the application of type approvals and the accompanying documentation.

46. The World Forum welcomed the work done by IWVTA and endorsed the proposed procedures above.

113. The representative of the United States of America gave a presentation on the approach of his Administration concerning the five possible levels of vehicle automation (WP.29-161-18). He stated that although a lot of progress had been accomplished so far by manufacturers in his country and around the world on this subject, his Administration considered this technology not mature [enough] to be regulated at this time. He stated that NHTSA was taking into account several areas of technology and provided definitions to provide a better understanding on how the United States of America was approaching this subject. Therefore, he invited AC.3 representatives to participate in a workshop organized by his country in the Vehicle Research Test Center (VRTC) of NHTSA in Columbus, in the spring or summer of 2014, to share research progress.

114. The representative of the United Kingdom stated that the timely initiation of this discussion could lead the way for a possible start in a harmonized approach worldwide. He underlined that the issue of acronyms designated by manufacturers for individual technological solutions could create confusion for customers and prevents a future performance-based approach. He suggested that the WP.29 IWG on ITS would be the best place to continue and develop discussions on a harmonized approach on this matter. The representative of Germany endorsed this statement. He informed AC.3 that similar discussions were taking place in his country and that a forum had been established dealing with three different groups of interests: (i) research, (ii) vehicle and liability and (iii) the driver. Finally, he raised concerns on the different levels of automation and the responsibility (manufacturer or driver) associated to them. He concluded that liability issues should be prioritized before starting discussion on definitions and invited AC.3 to establish a round table to develop discussions. The representative of Japan endorsed the statement by the United Kingdom. He informed that his country had also been studying vehicle automation and could present the approach of his Ministry at the next IWG on ITS.

115. AC.3 requested the secretariat to insert a specific agenda item on this matter.

98. The representative of Japan reported on the work progress (WP.29-161-19) of the IWG on UN GTR No. 7 Phase 2. The representative of the United Kingdom, chairing the group, informed AC.3 that the injury criteria for the use of the Biofidelic Rear Impact Dummy (BioRID II) were still pending due to constraints of medical research in the United States of America. Nevertheless, he reported that his group had made good progress in drafting the UN GTR for consideration at the December 2013 session of GRSP. He added that the draft UN GTR would be supplemented with an addendum to the Mutual Resolution No. 1 (M.R.1) that could also be useful as a model for future addenda developed by other IWGs. He finally suggested that a complete discussion of the proposals would take place during the 2014 sessions of GRSP, leaving Contracting Parties with a final decision concerning the removal of the current Hybrid III dummy from the dynamic test.

85. The Executive Committee noted the information, as of 28 October 2013, on the status of the 1998 Agreement (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1073/Rev.8). AC.3 also noted that some Contracting Parties had not voted on a UN GTR but had voted on its Corrigenda or Amendments. AC.3 agreed to further clarify, at the next session, the notification obligations of the Contracting Parties. Representatives were reminded of their obligation to send the mandatory reports on the transposition process through their Permanent Missions in Geneva via the “1998 AGREEMENT-MISSIONS List” electronic system to the secretariat to ensure updating of the status document which is the monitoring tool of the Agreement. Assistance may be obtained from the secretariat. AC.3 considered WP.29-161-20, containing communication information from the secretariat to the Missions and to the AC.3 Heads of Delegations to new Contracting Parties to the Agreement.

99. The representative of Germany, on behalf of the Chair of the IWG on Phase 2 of the UN GTR No. 9, introduced the fifth progress report of the group (WP.29-161-21). He informed AC.3 that the last meeting of the IWG was held in Paris, on 9-10 September 2013. Experts considered open issues such as injury criteria and femur certification corridors. He added that the IWG had submitted an official proposal for amendments to the UN GTR to incorporate the flexible pedestrian legform impactor (FlexPLI) to the December 2013 session of GRSP. A further proposal had been transmitted to introduce the FlexPLI into M.R.1 as an addendum. He finally announced that the ninth meeting of the IWG would take place in Geneva, on 16-17 December 2013, prior to the GRSP proper session. He expected that the official draft amendment to the UN GTR could be considered by GRSP at its December 2014.

117. The representative of the Republic of Korea presented WP.29-161-12 and WP.29-161-13 complementing his presentation on Vehicle Indoor Air Quality (VIAQ) given at the previous session of WP.29 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1104, para. 130). He invited AC.3 to evaluate the possibility of establishing an IWG with the aim to develop a new UN GTR by 2017. He added that Korea would be committed to chairing such a group.

118. The representative of EU appreciated the presentations, but advised to complete first the development of current tasks before starting new activities. He indicated that this issue may already have been addressed by current legislation. The representative of Canada underlined the importance of addressing potential health impacts related with VIAQ. He supported the idea to work in this area taking into consideration the advice of the EU. He suggested focusing on the identification of best practices and the collection of information before undertaking regulatory work. The Chair of GRPE (Germany) supported the considerations of EU and Canada. He stressed the need to collect information and to analyse the subject before deciding upon the need to develop a UN GTR, if CPs see the need for such a step. Recalling the purpose of WP.29-160-38, the representative of the Russian Federation underlined the importance of the impact of pollutants emitted in the atmosphere on VIAQ.

119. AC.3 invited all participants to collect information on this topic and requested the secretariat to keep this item on the agenda of the March 2014 session for further discussion.

26. Recalling the submission of GRPE-65-20, WP.29-160-39, WP.29-161-22 and GRPE-68-10 on tyre and brake wear and vehicle indoor air quality, the expert from the Russian Federation introduced GRPE-69-03 with further test and research results. He underlined the evidence that tyre wear would contribute to air pollution not only with solid particulates but also with gaseous pollutants. He announced that, to address this issue, the standard GOST R 51206-2015 on cabin air filters and purifiers was under development.

27. The Chair of the IWG on PMP provided an overview of the latest activities of the IWG (GRPE-69-25) focusing (i) first on the exhaust emissions, in particular on the 23 nm cut-off size confirmation given the state of technology as well as the development of a robust procedure to measure particles down to 10 nm in case of future needs, (ii) then on the particle emissions during regeneration and the particle emissions from Non-Road Mobile Machinery. He reported that the Group had addressed (GRPE-69-24) the concerns expressed in GRPE-69-03 and proposed a possible road map on how to proceed further with the issue of particles from tyre and brake wear (GRPE-69-23).

28. GRPE acknowledged the information provided by the IWG and the Russian Federation, endorsed in principle the roadmap proposed and requested the secretariat to reserve a room for a meeting prior to the January 2015 GRPE session.

43. The expert from the Russian Federation introduced GRPE-69-03 while discussing item 7 on Particulate Measurement Programme (see para. 26).

30. The expert from the Russian Federation presented GRBP-70-07 on the emissions of hazardous substances and particulate matters caused by wear of tyres and roadway, which contaminates urban atmosphere. GRBP took note of this information as well as of the position of the European Tyre and Rubber Manufacturer’s Association (ETRMA) (GRBP-70-16). The expert from EC mentioned the ongoing European Union study on the subject. The Chair acknowledged the importance of this issue and recalled that it had been allocated to the Working Party on Pollution and Energy (GRPE) and its Informal Working Group on Particle Measurement Programme (IWG PMP).

70. The World Forum noted the consolidated document containing the status of the Agreement (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1073/Rev.8). WP.29 noted that some Contracting Parties had fulfilled their obligation to send their status and final reports on the progress of transposition of the UN GTRs and their amendments into their domestic law. The representatives of the Contracting Parties were reminded of their obligation to send the mandatory reports on the transposition process through their Permanent Missions in Geneva via the “1998 AGREEMENT-MISSIONS List” electronic system to the secretariat. The World Forum agreed that a more detailed consideration of the monitoring of the 1998 Agreement, including details of the notification obligation would be considered under agenda item 13 of the Executive Committee AC.3 session (see para. 85 below). The representative of Japan stated that his country would transpose UN GTR No. 13 (Hydrogen and Fuel-cell vehicles) into its national legislation and confirmed that listing No. 10 of the Compendium of Candidates could be deleted as a candidate UN GTR.

71. WP.29 agreed that agenda items 5.2 to 5.5 should be considered by AC.3.

85. The Executive Committee noted the information, as of 28 October 2013, on the status of the 1998 Agreement (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1073/Rev.8). AC.3 also noted that some Contracting Parties had not voted on a UN GTR but had voted on its Corrigenda or Amendments. AC.3 agreed to further clarify, at the next session, the notification obligations of the Contracting Parties. Representatives were reminded of their obligation to send the mandatory reports on the transposition process through their Permanent Missions in Geneva via the “1998 AGREEMENT-MISSIONS List” electronic system to the secretariat to ensure updating of the status document which is the monitoring tool of the Agreement. Assistance may be obtained from the secretariat. AC.3 considered WP.29-161-20, containing communication information from the secretariat to the Missions and to the AC.3 Heads of Delegations to new Contracting Parties to the Agreement.

The expert from OICA introduced amendments to the proposals (GRE-69-27 and GRE-69-28). Introducing GRE-69-18 and GRE-69-19, the expert from the Netherlands expressed the concern about the lack of signal uniformity that this proposal would create. GRE requested an assessment of impact upon safety relating to direction indicators with variable apparent surface. The majority of experts from Contracting Parties opposed the proposal made by Germany and France but agreed to resume consideration on this issue on the basis of a revised proposal by the experts from France and Germany. GRE agreed to keep GRE-69-17, GRE-69-18 and GRE-69-30 on the agenda of its October 2013 session.

77. The World Forum agreed that the proposal for Supplement 3 to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 48 (WP.29-160-21) should be considered at its November 2013 session and requested the secretariat to distribute it with an official symbol.

35. On behalf of the task force on Liquefied Natural Gas vehicles (LNG), the expert from the Netherlands introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/7 proposing to insert into UN Regulation No. 110 new provisions for vehicles using LNG in their propulsion systems. He also presented GRSG-104-34, GRSG-104-35, GRSG-104-36, GRSG-104-37 and GRSG-104-38 proposing further improvements to the text as agreed by the task force during its meeting on 15 April 2013, prior to the GRSG session. GRSG noted GRSG-104-32 justifying the need for such amendments as well as GRSG-104-33 listing a number of questions and answers on general LNG background issues.

36. GRSG acknowledged the work done by the LNG task force and considered ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/7 in detail. GRSG adopted the document, as reproduced in GRSG-104-44, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2013 sessions as draft Supplement 1 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 110, subject to a final review of GRSG-104-44 by the Working Party on Pollution and Energy (GRPE) at its forthcoming session in June 2013, particularly on environmental issues.

37. The expert from CLEPA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/10 proposing to introduce into UN Regulation No. 110 type approval provisions for electronic control units (ECUs). GRSG adopted the document, as amended, and agreed to reflect the adopted text in GRSG-104-44, mentioned above.

38. The expert from CLEPA presented ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/11 proposing to introduce into UN Regulation No. 110 type approval provisions for fuel selection systems. GRSG noted a number of concerns and preferred to refer the proposal to the informal group on Gaseous Fuelled Vehicles (GFV) for detailed consideration at the forthcoming session in Brussels. GRSG agreed to resume consideration on this subject at its next session on the basis of a revised document by CLEPA.

39. The expert from CLEPA also proposed to introduce type approval provisions for “valve control at the stop-start function” into UN Regulation No. 110 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/12). The expert from OICA presented GRSG-104-19 improving the proposed text. GRSG agreed in principle on the both proposals, but preferred again to refer the proposal to GFV for detailed review. GRSG agreed to resume consideration on this subject at its next session on the basis of a revised document by CLEPA.

39. Referring to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/101, the expert from the Netherlands introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/28 clarifying the type approval provisions for vehicles equipped with Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) propulsion systems. GRSG noted a list of editorial corrections (GRSG-105-02) to be inserted into ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/101. GRSG adopted the proposed amendments as reproduced in WP.29-161-05 and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2013 sessions as a Corrigendum to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/101 (draft Supplement 1 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 110).

34. The expert from the Netherlands introduced GRSG-106-24 proposing amendments on the installation of LNG fuel tanks to avoid them touching the ground. GRSG noted some comments and agreed to resume consideration of this subject at its next session on the basis of an updated proposal by the Netherlands.

[Proposal adopted.]

47. GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2013/6, as amended by Annex VIII to this report and proposing provisions for the coupling systems for charging the REESS. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration and vote at their November 2013 sessions as draft Supplement 3 to the 04 series of amendments to the UN Regulation No. 12, as part of (see para. 35) draft Supplement 5 to the 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 94 and as draft Supplement 4 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 95.
