Simplification of Regulations - Light Sources Regulations Nos. 37, 99, 128 - Request for guidance
Reference Number: WP.29-167-19
Request from the SLR informal group for confirmation whether the proposed establishment of a resolution on common specifications of light source categories is acceptable. The resolution would provide a list of light sources allowed in lamps. The UN Office of Legal Affairs has stated that a resolution may not be used to amend a regulation, raising a possible question of interpretation. The SLR informal group also asks whether the proposed resolution can be provided only in English.
This proposal (WP.29/2015/81), Not amended, was adopted by the World Forum. Thirty-seven Contracting Parties out of the 42 applying UN R90 were present for the vote by AC.1. Thirty-seven voted in favor with zero against and zero abstaining.
