Note: There cannot be a regulation dedicated to a technology with an "if-fitted" clause. If a manufacturer is applying for approval, they obviously have the technology on the vehicle. OICA interprets "if fitted" to mean that a CP does not have to mandate the technology, but can still use the regulation in cases where the technology is optional. Frost says CP can first decide whether to sign the regulation. Then whether just to accept approvals. Then whether to require technology. Frost does not see "if fitted" as changing this and agrees that you cannot apply the BAS regulation to a vehicle without BAS. OICA still concerned that under IWTVA a CP may interpret "shall" to mean mandatory installation. Guichard says that's issue for UN R0, not UN R142--component regulation specifies provisions for approval of a system and its installation on a vehicle. Bocharev says OICA concern is about implementation of regulation, not the regulation itself.
