The expert from Spain on behalf of the Technical Services Group (TSG) on UN Regulation No. 129 introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2021/7 as amended by GRSP-70-05, aimed at clarifying the head containment assessment for side impact testing. GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2021/7 as amended by annex VI (GRSP-70-05) to the report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as draft Supplement 7 to the 03 series of amendment to UN Regulation No. 129 for consideration and vote at the June 2022 sessions of WP.29 and to AC.1.

GRSP requested to continue sharing information at its May 2022 session on this subject awaiting an official proposal from the expert from CLEPA based on GRSP-68-05.
