47. The expert from Japan introduced the draft UN Regulation on Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Vehicles of category L (GRSP-61-03) with a presentation (GRSP-61-04). He explained that his country had established a national standard with similar provisions. However, he added that the mutual recognition of type approvals ensured by the 1958 Agreement to enable faster deployment such vehicles thus the reason for proposing a new UN Regulation instead of amending the UN GTR No. 13. GRSP requested experts to provide their comments on the proposal to the expert from Japan by the end of July. GRSP expected to resume discussion at its December 2017 session on the basis of a revised proposal and requested the secretariat to keep GRSP-61-03 as a reference on the agenda of the next session.
43. The expert from Japan introduced the draft UN Regulation on Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Vehicles of category L (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/19) with a presentation (GRSP-62-01). GRSP noted that GRSP-62-02 showed the changes introduced in the official proposal (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/19) with reference to the original ones introduced during the May 2017 session of GRSP (GRSP-61-03). The expert from the United Kingdom suggested incorporating these provisions into UN Regulation No. 134 instead to creating a new UN Regulation. However, the expert from Japan confirmed his intention of have a separate UN Regulation addressing specific conditions related to L category of vehicles, such as: (a) frontal and lateral shocks, (b) fuel system leakage and © parking conditions. GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/19, as amended by Annex IX to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as draft new UN Regulation on Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Vehicles of category L to the June 2018 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote.

Description
|
Proposal to consolidate provisions concerning ISOFIX top tether anchorages and i-Size seating positions removed from Regulation No. 14 in a new regulation. This change removes obstacles to the inclusion of UN R14 into Annex 4 of the future UN Regulation No. 0 of the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval (IWVTA).

45. The expert from OICA introduced the draft new UN Regulation (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/7) on ISOFIX. He also provided for information the list of UN Regulations (GRSP-61-11) affected by the splitting of UN Regulation No. 14. He also introduced GRSP-61-06-Rev.1, amending ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/7. GRSP adopted the proposal as amended by Annex VIII to the report for submission to WP.29 in November 2017.
46. Finally, GRSP agreed to keep GRSP-58-13 as a reference in the agenda of the next session for possible future discussion on harmonization of requirements on ISOFIX.
14. The expert from OICA introduced two proposals: (a) GRSP-60-04 to remove ISOFIX anchorages from the Regulation and (b) GRSP-60-05 to incorporate them into a new one dedicated to these anchorages only. He explained that, in his opinion, the two proposals constitute the most viable solution aimed at solving the incompatibility of the requirements of the Regulation with the existing designs of Child Restraint Systems (CRS) in Australia and including Regulation No. 14 into Annex 4 of the future Regulation No. 0 on the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval (IWVTA). The expert from Australia supported the solution proposed by the expert from OICA as well as the experts from Italy, Japan and Sweden. However, the experts from the Netherlands and EC argued that the improvement proposed by Australia and covering harmonization issues should not be disregarded. The experts from France and the United Kingdom supported the splitting of Regulation No. 14 and urged that some improvements on ISOFIX provisions were needed once that the new Regulation was established.
15. GRSP agreed to resume discussion on this subject at its May 2017 session, on the basis of revised proposals tabled by OICA including the replacement of dynamic with static references in Regulation No. 14 and in a number of other Regulations. In the meantime, it was agreed to keep GRSP-58-13 on the next GRSP agenda for future development of ISOFIX provisions.

10. The Chair of GRSP, chairing also the IWG, informed GRSP about the completion of work achieved by the group and showed the main contents of the draft UN GTR (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/2) through a presentation (GRSP-61-25). He also introduced the final report of the IWG activities (GRSP-61-09). The expert from EC supplemented this presentation by introducing the main changes to the draft UN GTR (GRSP-61-08) that had been agreed upon by the IWG during its last meetings. He also introduced a clean copy of the draft UN GTR (GRSP-61-07) incorporating GRSP-61-08. Finally, GRSP recommended ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/2, as amended by Annex II to this report, and the final report of the IWG (GRSP-61-09) as reproduced in Annex II to this report, for their establishment in the global registry. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal and the final report to WP.29 and to the Executive Committee of the 1998 Agreement (AC.3) for consideration and vote at their November 2017 sessions as a new UN GTR on Electric Vehicle Safety.
11. The expert from EC expected that UN Regulation No. 100 would be amended as a new series of amendments to facilitate the transposition of the UN GTR into national legislation the Chair of GRSP clarified that the United States of America intends to follow the UN GTR adoption process as required under the 1998 Agreement on the issue of the transposition plan of the UN GTR into domestic legislations, He also expressed that currently there is a lack of safety provisions on Lithium Ion battery in his country. The expert from the China informed GRSP that his country plans to transpose the UN GTR gradually due to its complexity. The Chair of GRSP recommended that the transposition of the UN GTR should be as much as possible consistent with the actual text of the UN GTR. The Chair of GRSP informed GRSP that the IWG of phase 2 of the UN GTR would start, without discontinuation, to address thermal propagation and other pending technical issues. Accordingly, GRSP noted that a draft authorization to develop Phase 2 of the UN GTR is expected to be submitted to AC.3 and WP.29 at the November 2017 sessions. Finally, GRSP agreed to resume discussion at its December 2017 pending on AC.3 decision.
142. The representative of the United States of America, on behalf of the Chair of the IWG on EVS, informed AC.3 that GRSP had recommended submission to the November 2017 session of AC.3, of the draft UN GTR WP.29-172-06 and of the final report of the IWG (WP.29-172-05). AC.3 noted the intention of the IWG to continue its activity by already starting the work on Phase 2 until the end of its mandate in December 2017. AC.3 agreed in principle with the request, pending: (a) an official authorization to develop the work of Phase 2 of the UN GTR for submission to the November 2017 session of AC.3, and (b) the Term of Reference of the IWG for the Phase 2 for submission at a later stage. AC.3 noted that this approach would avoid the discontinuation of IWG work activities and deal with the urgent, pending issues from Phase 1 of the UN GTR (WP.29-172-06).

7. The expert from the Republic of Korea introduced the Status Report (GRSP-61-12) of the Task Force of Deployable Pedestrian Protection Systems (TF-DPPS). He explained that the basis of discussion within the TF were New Car Assessment Programme (NCAP) test protocols and that the TF had requested guidance from GRSP on its mandate about three issues: (i) development of a test procedure amending the current text of the UN Regulation No. 129 and UN GTR No. 9, (ii) possible inclusion of numerical simulation and (iii) upgrade the TF to an IWG. The expert from Japan underlined that the mandate of the TF was limited to clarify test procedures and not to define new requirements (e.g. the trigger time of bonnet deployment). He advised that the establishment of an IWG would be needed if the intention were to develop new requirements. The expert from OICA endorsed the statement from Japan and argued that NCAP was applying test procedures established within the regulatory framework of WP.29 and that the two domains should not be mixed by the TF. Moreover, he recommended the TF to carefully think about using a numerical simulation as a requirement in a UN regulation as this would be the first time such development is being used in a UN Regulation or UN GTR. GRSP requested the TF to take into account the above-mentioned statements into consideration while develop its recommendations. Finally, all the experts from Contracting Parties were encouraged to participate in the TF activities.

36. The expert from France introduced GRSP-61-17-Rev.2, superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/17 aimed at introducing the third phase of the UN Regulation which is meant to introduce “Universal belted” and “Specific vehicle belted” category of CRS. He further explained that the basic principle of Phase 3 was to reach a compromise from misuse and bad installation and having as much as possible seat places to install CRS where ISOFIX anchorages cannot be allocated. Moreover, GRSP noted the request of guidance to Contracting Parties proposed in GRSP-61-28 concerning: (i) which kind of combinations of ECRS should be allowed (e.g. ISOFIX and Universal Belted) (ii) under which conditions and (iii) guiding principles. The expert from the Netherlands raised concerns on “inserts” used on CRS to adapt them to the size of the occupant. He stated that inserts should be identified (labelled with identification and with size information) and that requirements should be devised to prevent camouflage of bad CRS. The expert from the United Kingdom supported the principle of a performance-based approach and requested more data on misuse. However, he shared the concern of the expert from the Netherlands. The expert from IC stated that ISOFIX had the priority to avoid misuse while other solutions and combinations with ISOFIX were just secondary and should be limited. The experts from Germany and Sweden raised a study reservation and stated that “plug-and-play” solution was the key principle for having a simple and efficient system; while now the ECRS IWG was opening to combinations that could have misuse implications.
37. GRSP agreed to resume discussion on Phase 3 of the UN Regulation at its December 2017 session on the basis of more data analyses. In the same time, GRSP referred back to the IWG GRSP-61-17-Rev.2 and invited representatives of Contracting Parties of the 1958 Agreement to participate in the 21-22 June meeting of the IWG to cover the request of guidance mentioned above.
33. The expert from France, Chair of the IWG on Enhanced Child Restraint Systems (ECRS), gave a presentation (GRSP-62-28) on the work progress of the draft 03 series of amendments to the UN Regulation (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/41). He also introduced GRSP-62-20, covering definition and provisions for lower tether strap and lower tether anchorages. ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/41 received several comments and amendments including transitional provisions that were adapted according to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2017/107. GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/41 as amended by Annex VII to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as draft 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 129 for consideration and vote at the June 2018 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1. GRSP requested the secretariat to distribute GRSP-62-20 with an official symbol at the May 2018 session of GRSP.

22. The expert from Germany introduced GRSP-61-19-Rev.1 to clarify that safety-belts and components should still in function after the load retention test. The expert from OICA argued that inevitably after the test some components would be damaged and raised a study reservation. GRSP agreed to resume discussion at its December 2017 session and requested the secretariat to distribute GRSP-61-19-Rev.1 with an official symbol.
17. The expert from Germany introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/25 aimed at clarifying that safety-belts and components should continue to function after the load retention test. He added that according to the current text of the UN Regulation, when safety-belt retractor destruction occurred during a test, there were no means to refuse the type approval. However, the expert from OICA argued that the text proposed still shows misinterpretations. Therefore, the expert from Germany, in cooperation with the experts from CLEPA and OICA introduced GRSP-62-37. The experts from the Russian Federation and Australia remarked on the need to verify cross references to other UN Regulations. The expert from OICA suggested that the proposal should be a new series of amendments instead of a supplement. In the meantime, the expert from France argued that it should be considered as a Supplement because it introduces clarifications. He requested further a study reservation. GRSP agreed to resume discussion on this subject at its May 2018 session and requested the secretariat to distribute GRSP-62-37 with an official symbol. Finally, the expert from Germany proposed to establish a Technical Service Group (TSG) to address interpretation issues, as for UN Regulation No. 44.

31. The expert from the Republic of Korea introduced GRSP-61-24 to inform GRSP about research and safety testing activities on L7 categories of vehicles. She also stated that Korea is planning to develop a frontal collision requirement for L7 category vehicles. The expert from EC informed GRSP that a study by the European Union on an initial assessment of additional functional safety of L7 vehicles was available. However, he added that the study did not show enough crash-worthiness data to justify an action plan. Moreover, he offered his availability, if needed, to cooperate with the expert from the Republic of Korea to adapt existing UN Regulations or in the development of a new UN Regulations to address this issue. The expert from France added that the fleet of L7 categories was increasing in his country and he volunteered to provide domestic accident data at the December 2017 session of GRSP. The Chair of GRSP, recalling a previous presentation made by the expert of his country at the May 2016 session (see GRSP-59-18) stressed the need to address the roadworthiness issue related to this category of vehicles, especially frontal collision as performed by Euro NCAP (see ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1126, para. 86). GRSP agreed to resume discussion on this issue at its December 2017 session on the basis of further research data and follow-up by WP.29 at its November 2017 session.

10. The Chair of GRSP, chairing also the IWG, informed GRSP about the completion of work achieved by the group and showed the main contents of the draft UN GTR (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/2) through a presentation (GRSP-61-25). He also introduced the final report of the IWG activities (GRSP-61-09). The expert from EC supplemented this presentation by introducing the main changes to the draft UN GTR (GRSP-61-08) that had been agreed upon by the IWG during its last meetings. He also introduced a clean copy of the draft UN GTR (GRSP-61-07) incorporating GRSP-61-08. Finally, GRSP recommended ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/2, as amended by Annex II to this report, and the final report of the IWG (GRSP-61-09) as reproduced in Annex II to this report, for their establishment in the global registry. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal and the final report to WP.29 and to the Executive Committee of the 1998 Agreement (AC.3) for consideration and vote at their November 2017 sessions as a new UN GTR on Electric Vehicle Safety.
11. The expert from EC expected that UN Regulation No. 100 would be amended as a new series of amendments to facilitate the transposition of the UN GTR into national legislation the Chair of GRSP clarified that the United States of America intends to follow the UN GTR adoption process as required under the 1998 Agreement on the issue of the transposition plan of the UN GTR into domestic legislations, He also expressed that currently there is a lack of safety provisions on Lithium Ion battery in his country. The expert from the China informed GRSP that his country plans to transpose the UN GTR gradually due to its complexity. The Chair of GRSP recommended that the transposition of the UN GTR should be as much as possible consistent with the actual text of the UN GTR. The Chair of GRSP informed GRSP that the IWG of phase 2 of the UN GTR would start, without discontinuation, to address thermal propagation and other pending technical issues. Accordingly, GRSP noted that a draft authorization to develop Phase 2 of the UN GTR is expected to be submitted to AC.3 and WP.29 at the November 2017 sessions. Finally, GRSP agreed to resume discussion at its December 2017 pending on AC.3 decision.

35. The expert from France, Chair of the IWG on Enhanced Child Restraint Systems (ECRS), gave a presentation (GRSP-61-28) on the work progress of the IWG on amendments to the UN Regulation. He explained that ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/15 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/16 were aimed, amongst others, at introducing provisions for ECRS equipped with impact shields as such restraint systems were not yet covered by the 01 and 02 series of amendments. The expert from CLEPA gave a presentation (GRSP-61-33) showing concerns on the proposals tabled by France. The expert from OICA raised concern on the increased head excursion (840 mm) during the dynamic test on rearward-facing CRS. The expert from France finally introduced GRSP-61-15-Rev.1 and GRSP-61-16-Rev.1 superseding respectively ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/15 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/16 and including the comments received.

43. The expert from EC introduced GRSP-61-29, superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2015/30, to harmonize the information of the airbag warning label on the correct installation of CRS. The expert from France argued that the proposed size of the area for part number marking (5 mm x 20 mm) was too small. The expert from OICA raised the same concern and a study reservation. GRSP agreed to resume discussion at its December 2017 session and requested the secretariat to distribute GRSP-61-29 with an official symbol.
39. The expert from OICA introduced GRSP-62-14, as an alternative proposal to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2017/27 tabled by the expert from EC, concerning the information in the airbag warning label on the correct installation of CRS on a passenger seat with an activated frontal airbag. He suggested that the proposal should be adopted as a new series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 16 (Safety-belts) instead of a Supplement and to regroup these kind of requirements in UN Regulation No. 16 only. He also underlined the problem of translation in all languages of the detailed information, which makes reference to the warning, that should be contained in the owner’s manual.
40. The expert from Australia explained that his country requires vehicles to be fitted with an airbag warning label through a national rule that requires vehicles to meet UN Regulation No. 94. He added that although his country also had a national rule that incorporates UN Regulation No. 16, this rule does not require vehicles to meet the airbag warning label requirements of UN Regulation No. 16. Therefore, he stated that removing the requirement for an airbag warning label from UN Regulation No. 94 would create a loophole, which would allow vehicles to be supplied to the Australian market without any airbag warning label.
41. GRSP agreed to resume discussion on this subject at its May 2018 session. The secretariat was requested to distribute GRSP-62-14 with an official symbol at the next session awaiting a possible revised proposal submitted by the expert from OICA.

23. The expert from the Netherlands informed GRSP (GRSP-61-30) on the state of the art of the development of a standard in his country on protective helmets designed for riders of bikes assisted by an electric engine (pedelec). He clarified that a working group of the Dutch Standardization Institute (NEN), with the participation of the Netherlands Organization for applied scientific research (TNO), was developing a national technical agreement on test requirements for helmets of this kind that would be probably less stringent than those of UN Regulation No. 22. He informed GRSP that studies on this subject were available on the TNO websites. The expert from France informed GRSP that their national law for high powered pedelec is more stringent than the EU Regulation. He added that pedelec should be registered as mopeds and that riders should wear helmets that were type approved according to UN Regulation No. 22. He expressed concerns that allowances on certain L1 category of vehicles, such as pedelec, would be requested by other L1 users by decreasing road safety. The expert from Sweden reiterated her request for a more real world data, technical information as well as active participation from the helmet industry at GRSP. The expert from the Netherlands stated that in his country it is possible to ride mopeds without helmets, while in Germany it requires a suitable helmet and that GRSP was not responsible for enforcement. The expert from Italy reminded that the helmet issue was speed related and that UN Regulation No. 22 protects riders from the point of view of speed. He concluded that the experience from the Netherland would be interesting for the future discussions.
