23. Regarding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2011/23/Rev.1 to allow replacement of all mirrors with camera-monitor systems (CMS), GRSG noted no new information made by ISO on the progress in the publication of the updated standard on camera-monitor systems (ISO 16505), expected by mid-2014. Thus, GRSG agreed to keep ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2011/23/Rev.1 on the agenda as a reference document.

24. The expert from Germany introduced GRSG-105-27 proposing to re-establish the informal group on Camera-Monitor Systems (CMS). The expert from the Netherlands committed to continue the chairmanship of CMS. The expert from OICA informed GRSG that he would need some time to consider continuation of his tasks as Secretary of CMS. GRSG adopted the revised Terms of Reference of the informal group and the proposed time schedule for the tasks of CMS as reproduced in Annex II to the session report.

25. The GRSG Chair invited all interested experts to actively participate in the future meetings of the re-established informal group on CMS, subject to the consent of WP.29 at its November 2013 session and the commitment by OICA to ensure the tasks of the secretariat servicing.

26. Referring to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/21 on the installation of exterior mirrors with automatic pivoting function on the passenger side of a vehicle, the expert from Germany introduced GRSG-105-28 on new requirements for mirrors to be unfolded automatically above a certain vehicle speed. He announced that he had already received a number of comments by the experts from the Netherlands and OICA. GRSG noted a number of further comments and agreed to resume consideration of the proposals at the next GRSG session on the basis of a revised official document by Germany.

27. The expert from Germany presented ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/23 clarifying the introduction of the extended field of vision on heavy goods vehicles that may be covered using different mirror classes. The expert from the United Kingdom proposed some improvements to the proposed text (GRSG-105-22). GRSG adopted the document, as amended below, and requested the secretariat to submit the amendments to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2014 sessions as draft Supplement 1 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 46.

Paragraphs 15.2.4.5.11.1. to 15.2.4.5.11.3., replace the wording “that it provides” by “that it simultaneously provides” (3 times).

Paragraph 15.2.4.5.12., second subparagraph, replace the wording “However, in that case” by “In such cases” and “that it provides” by that it simultaneously provides".

28. The expert from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/18 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/19 clarifying the transitional provisions of the 03 series and the 04 series of amendments, respectively, to UN Regulation No. 46. GRSG adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/19, as amended below, and requested the secretariat to submit the amendments to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2014 sessions as part (see para. 27 above) of draft Supplement 1 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 46.

29. GRSG also adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/18, as amended below, and requested the secretariat to submit the amendments to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2014 sessions as draft Supplement 3 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 46.

Paragraphs 21.6. and 21.7., replace the wording “force of this series” by “force of the 03 series” (2 times).

30. Recalling the purpose of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/5 to increase the safety benefits of the driver’s field of vision and the pedestrian safety in narrow streets, the expert from Japan introduced GRSG-105-25 proposing some amendments to the initial proposal and a roadmap for further proceedings. GRSG noted a number of concerns by the experts from the EC, Germany, Hungary and the United Kingdom and OICA (GRSG-105-17). GRSG did not agree to split UN Regulation No. 46 with respect to different vehicle categories. Following the discussion, GRSG agreed to resume consideration on this subject at its next session in May 2014 on the basis of a revised document by Japan, taking into account the comments received.

31. The expert from OICA presented GRSG-105-19 introducing, for special cases, adjustments to the co-ordinates of the ocular points. GRSG noted a number of comments and agreed to resume consideration on this subject at its next session on the basis of an official document.

32. The expert from OICA underlined the need to clarify the text of the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 46 (GRSG-105-18). GRSG adopted the proposal, as reproduced below, and requested the secretariat to submit the amendments to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2014 sessions as part (see paras. 27 and 28 above) of draft Supplement 1 to the 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 46.
