UN R7 has no requirements concerning changes in luminance of a lamp. Therefore, certain lamps which could not be installed in accordance with UN R48 could nonetheless obtain type approval and be sold in the aftermarket. This proposal would prevent such an occurrence.

GRE/2012/26 is a proposal from the Working Party “Brussels 1952” (GTB) to update provisions on heat resistance tests. This correction from GTB provides an improved justification for the proposed amendments.

GRE/2012/40 is a proposal from the Working Party “Brussels 1952” (GTB) introducing a new category LW2 into the new draft Regulation for LED light sources [UN R127] and introducing some editorial amendments to the existing text. GTB proposes this correction to better align its wording with UN R37.

Document GRE/2012/39 ( a proposal to introduce interdependent lamps (“Y” Lamps) into UN R87) did not take into account document WP.29/2012/78 submitted for adoption by WP.29 at its 158th (November 2012) session. Therefore, GTB proposes this new document to replace GRE/2012/39.
