In order to increase protection for older occupants, the Frontal Impact informal group proposes to decrease the permissible chest deflection for the 50th percentile Hybrid III dummy to 42 mm from the current 50 mm. (This change is proposed in concert with the development of a new frontal impact regulation focused on occupant restraint systems.)

Revised proposal to amend UN R129, updating the formal proposal GRSP/2014/7 submitted for the May 2014 GRSP session, pursuant to discussions of the CRS informal working group during its 43rd session. The 01 series of amendments would introduce provisions to enable the approval of non-integral child restraint systems (“Universal Booster” or “Specific to vehicle Booster”) under “phase 2” of the regulation’s development.

Table of questions, answers, and actions on open issues in the development of UN R129, i-size fixtures, and universal child booster seats and restraint systems.

Proposal to amend UN Regulation No. 129 (Enhanced Child Restraint System (ECRS)) as recommended by the informal working group on Child Restraint Systems (IWG CRS) in order to extend the scope of this regulation to non-integral child restraint systems (“Universal Booster” or “Specific to vehicle Booster”) (Phase 2 of the UN Regulation).

Presentation proposing language concerning maximum booster dimensions in UN R129.

Japan positions on the scope of the current phase 2 work, especially with regard to child sizes above 125 cm and the use of the Q6 versus Q10 child dummies.

Presentation on alternatives for bench foam given the unavailability of the previously selected material.

In parallel with the introduction of a new Regulation on a frontal impact with focus on the restraint system, this proposal would limit the chest deflection of the Hybrid III dummy to 42 mm (from the current 50 mm) in order to promote improved protection of older occupants.

Proposal to require that the vehicle cab remain attached to the vehicle frame by at least three mounting points following the pendulum test.

The present requirement for booster with belt guides for the diagonal belt is more stringent than for boosters without belt guides. This proposal aligns the requirement for belt disengagement with the requirements for other child restraint systems ((e.g. the displacement criteria and the criteria as indicated in Annex 15, para. 6.2.4.) and at the same time proposes new language to clarify the affected text.

The text prepared by Spain on behalf of the Technical Services Group (TSG) on Regulation No. 44. The proposed amendment is intended to clarify a number of technical provisions in the regulation.

Proposal from Japan to extend the overturning test to a broader range of child restraint systems, to require load application devices on the dummy, and from the Netherlands to correct an error in the Corrigendum 1 to Supplement 5 to the 03 series, as adopted by the Working Party on Passive Safety (GRSP) at its 54th session based on document GRSP/2013/10 as amended by Annex IV to the session report and on document GRSP/2013/20 not amended.

Modifications primarily to the headform test procedures in accordance with the proposed amendment 2 to GTR No. 9 as amended and adopted by the GRSP as its 54th session (document GRSP-54-09/Rev.1 as amended and reproduced in Annex V to the GRSP session report. The proposal addresses the adult headform test area and bumper test area.

Draft 01 series of amendments to Regulation No. 127 presented in a consolidated text of the regulation as adopted by GRSP and which aligns the test requirements of UN Regulation No. 127 with UN GTR No. 9 Phase 2 (Flex-PLI), incorporating Supplement 1 to the original version of the UN Regulation (determination of the headform test points). This proposal was adopted by the GRSP at its 54th session based on document GRSP-54-15-Rev. 1 as reproduced in Addendum 1 (document GRSP/54/Add.1) to the session report.

Proposal to introduce provisions for ISOFIX in convertible cars, to exempt vehicles with one seating position per row from the ISOFIX provisions of UN R14 and to correct an editorial error in Supplement 4 to the 07 series of the regulation, as adopted by the Working Party on Passive Safety (GRSP) at its 54th session. The proposal is based on documents GRSP/2013/18 amended and GRSP/2013/4 as amended by GRSP-54-19-Rev.2, both documents reproduced as amended in Annex III to the GRSP session report.
