Proposal based on GRSP/2025/31 to amend para. 7.1.3.6. to require relevant intermediate dummies testing when Enhanced Child Restraint Systems require substantial modification for different sizes or when size range covers more than 3 size ranges and to delete paragraph 5.5. and renumber paragraphs 5.6. to 5.8. as 5.5. to 5.7.

Proposal to modify para. 6.2.1.1. regarding insert layers for small babies with stature below 50 cm, amend Annex 18, table 1 with updated shoulder height dimensions for statures 40 cm to 70 cm, update approval markings in Annex 2, and introduce transitional provisions with Contracting Parties no longer obliged to accept preceding series approvals from 1 September 2028.

Proposal to amend UN Regulation No. 129 to remove rebound head contact from the head acceleration requirement for all Child Restraint Systems. The regulation currently lacks consistency regarding whether rebound head movement is considered in testing. Variations in test bench design cause booster seats to pass in some laboratories but fail in others based solely on rebound contact. The proposal ensures consistency between different CRS types and reproducibility across laboratories with different test bench designs, and aligns with the approach in UN Regulations 94 and 137.
