Justification of submissions GRSP/2015/20 and GRSP/2015/29 (proposals to introduce an integral fixture for lateral (lie flat, carry cot) child restraint systems).

Further refinements to the formal proposal to amend UN R129 with regard to non-integral CRS. This informal document effectively updates the formal proposal in GRSP/2015/24.

Updated proposal from the CRS informal group to introduce phase 2 amendments related to the booster-seat CRS category (booster seat with backrest) into UN R129. This informal document effectively supersedes the formal proposal in GRSP/2015/31.

Completion of missing Integral fixtures for Regulation 129. The Universal Fixture was compatible with 39 of 40 vehicle types (97.5%) tested, but a lateral fixture (lie flat, carry cot) is needed for certain special cases.

Proposal to introduce test procedures from the US FMVSS 302 with regard to the burning behavior/flammability of materials used in child restraint systems. The proposal requests a GRSP decision on the maximum burn rate limit.

US comments on child restraint systems based upon NHTSA’s National Child Restraint Use Special Study (NCRUSS), including recommendations on their installation, use, and testing thresholds.

Presentation in support of the proposal (document GRSP-58-16) to amend the toxicity and flammability declarations via references to EN71.

Proposal to amend the toxicity and flammability declarations via references to EN71 (European safety standards).

Proposal to amend the toxicity and flammability provisions. This proposal runs in parallel with the proposal to amend the 00 series of amendments (document GRSP-58-32).

Revised version of the proposal (formal document GRSP/2015/9 ) to extend the scope of UN Regulation No. 129 to include non-Integral child restraint systems (“Universal Booster” or “Specific to vehicle Booster”). This version includes all corrections to the text made by the Informal Working Group on Child Restraint Systems through its September session. (The CRS informal group will discuss this version during its October session.)

Proposal to harmonize information in the airbag warning label on the correct installation of Child Restraint Systems (CRS).

Proposal to introduce phase 2 amendments related to the booster seat category (booster seat with backrest) into UN R129. The text includes all modifications proposed by GRSP up to and including its 57th session (Geneva, 18–22 May 2015) as well as those of the IWG CRS up to and including its 53rd session (London, 2 September 2015). The proposal builds on the original UN Regulation No. 129, Corrigendum 1, Supplements 1, 2, 3 and 4 as well as the draft 01 series of amendments to the UN Regulation (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2015/24) Phase 1.
