4. The expert from the United States opened the discussion by giving a brief summary on the status of the discussions. Germany’s expert continued by introducing GRSP-70-33 and GRSP-70-36 on the results of the meetings of the informal Task Force on amendment 3. The expert from the United States of America iterated that the majority of the group members understood that draft Amendment 3 was a clarification of the practice already in place in Japan, the Republic of Korea and the European Union, and, while in the United States of America transposing UN GTR No. 9 to compliance testing was still under development and rulemaking not yet started. Finally, GRSP noted that the Task Force had not reached an agreement by the time of the December 2021 session of GRSP. Therefore, GRSP was not able to recommend amendment 3 to the Executive Committee of the 1998 Agreement (AC.3) at this time. It was further noted that the work of the informal Task Force was suspended and that once the informal working group on deployable pedestrian protection system (IWG-DPPS) would finalized its work, another IWG should be established to solve the remaining issues of the UN GTR. Finally, GRSP noted that sharing of information would continue at the level of GRSP experts and that further instructions may be expected by AC.3 at its March 2022 session.
