Proposal to supersede the current guidelines for regulatory procedures and transitional provisions for UN Regulations (document WP.29/1044 and its Revision 1) with updated general guidelines for establishing or amending UN Regulations, including for the definition of scope, administrative and transitional provisions, use of alternative requirements, and cross-referencing with other regulations. This proposal aims to

1. Streamline future work without superseding provisions of the 1958 Agreement and the existing UN Regulations,
2. Clarify rulemaking procedures pursuant to Revision 3 of the 1958 Agreement, and
3. Ensure “good regulatory practice” through clarifications to avoid divergence between the interpretation of Revision 3 and the application to UN Regulations.

Correction to align the French text with the English and Russian versions.
