45. The expert from OICA introduced GRRF-79-05, GRRF-79-06 and GRRF 79 07 superseding official proposals for separate Regulations on Brake Assist Systems (BAS) (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2014/11) and on Electronic Stability Control (ESC) (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2014/12) extracted from Regulation No. 13 H (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2014/10). GRRF agreed that further work e.g. on the transitional provisions, was necessary to make sure that Countries mandating the fitment of ESC or BAS on the basis of the existing text of Regulation No. 13-H would be able to continue to mandate this fitment, unaffected by this extraction. The expert from UK agreed to lead an ad-hoc group of interested members on addressing the transitional provisions, to establish a methodology for all of the regulations that would need to be separated for IWVTA. GRRF agreed to reconsider this proposal at its September 2015 session.

7. This item was discussed in conjunction with agenda item 10(b), see para. 36. The expert from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2014/10 as amended by GRRF-76-18 proposing to delete the provisions related to the introduction of ESC and BAS in the two draft Regulations mentioned in para. 36. in favour of separate and discrete regulations for these technologies. GRRF agreed to resume consideration of this item and keep the documentation on the agenda of the September 2014 session of GRRF.

43. The GRSG Ambassador, on behalf of the GRRF Ambassador, presented GRRF-79-37 and reported on the activities of the IWG on IWVTA and its subgroups. GRRF noted that IWVTA was one of the main objectives associated with Revision 3 of the 1958 Agreement which was expected to enter into force in March 2016 if no adoption delay would occur. He recalled that the GRRF actions related to IWVTA should ideally be completed by February 2015.

46. The expert from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2015/12 as amended by GRRF-79-09 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2015/13 as amended by GRRF-79-10 proposing a separate Regulation dedicated to Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) and removing the provisions related to TPMS of Regulation No. 64. The expert from the Russian Federation presented GRRF-79-20-Rev.1 containing an alternative proposal for the drafted transitional provisions in GRRF-79-09. GRRF agreed to revisit this item at its September 2015 session on the basis of a revised proposal.

52. The expert from OICA introduced GRRF-78-39 proposing a separate UN Regulation dedicated to Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). He presented GRRF-78-48 proposing the corresponding amendments to Regulation No. 64, removing the provisions related to TPMS. He also presented GRRF-78-38, the corresponding consolidated version (based on UN Regulation No. 64 without the TPMS provisions). GRRF agreed to split UN Regulation No. 64 in two parts and to keep both proposals (GRRF-78-38 and GRRF‑78‑39) on the agenda of the seventy-ninth GRRF session.

No document was submitted before the start of the session. The expert from OICA submitted at the end of the session GRRF-80-34 and GRRF-80-35 for review and comments by the experts of GRRF in view of the submission of an official document for the February 2016 session of GRRF.

58. The expert from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/4 proposing to remove the TPMS requirements from Regulation No. 64 as suggested by the IWG on IWVTA. He presented ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/5 proposing a new Regulation on TPMS. Following discussion, GRRF agreed on the proposals as amended and reproduced in GRRF-81-21 and GRRF-81-22.

60. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/4 as amended by Annex X of the report and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their June 2016 sessions, as draft 03 series of amendments to Regulation No. 64.

The expert from EC proposed amendments (GRRF-81-17) to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/5 clarifying that the manufacturer has the obligation to design a TPMS system which shall detect underinflation under a wide range of driving conditions and not only in the conditions of the test procedures in Annex 3 of the Regulation. GRRF adopted with the proposal as amended (GRRF-81-17-Rev.1). GRRF noted that the agreed proposal would not modify the test procedures as described in Annex 3 of the Regulation. The expert from the Russian Federation and some type-approval authorities raised a question about general provisions in UN Regulations for which no procedure was defined to verify the compliance with these general provisions for manufacturers. GRRF suggested that WP.29 could have a general discussion on the compliance off the test procedures and could provide guidance to the WP.29 subsidiary bodies.

61. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/5 as amended by Annex XI of the report and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their June 2016 sessions.
