Proposal to add missing Integral fixtures for Regulation 129. Fuller explanation can be found in document GRSP-57-09.

OICA comments and concerns regarding the generally accepted proposal for the definition of the bumper test area for use with the Flex-PLI lower leg impactor. The document raises issues concerning limitations of the test procedure and notes that the new requirements would have a significant impact on bumper design such that the transitional period for implementation should be 2019 to allow for a full vehicle development cycle.

Formal proposal as generally agreed during the 56th GRSP session to revise the procedure for determining the bumper test area under the pedestrian safety regulation. This proposal corrects shortcomings in the current definitions which could lead to a narrower test area than intended (leading to less effective pedestrian protection). This proposal includes a “bumper beam” determination method. The proposed changes also require the form of a new series of amendments (rather than a Supplement) and proposes a transition date of 1 September 2019 (rather than the previous 2017).

The proposal also includes a September 2017 transition date in the event that the GRSP determines that the proposal should be treated as a new series of amendments rather than as a Supplement.

Proposal to amend document GRSG/2015/8 which would revise the procedure for determining the bumper test area under the pedestrian safety regulation.

Proposal to improve the belt routing and positioning of the universal child restraint system seat fixture during testing.

Revised version of the proposal (formal document GRSP/2015/9 ) to extend the scope of UN Regulation No. 129 to include non-Integral child restraint systems (“Universal Booster” or “Specific to vehicle Booster”). This version includes all corrections to the text made by the Informal Working Group on Child Restraint Systems through it 6 May 2015 session.

Revised amendment, including track changes, to introduce all the modifications needed in UN Regulation No. 129 (Enhanced Child Restraint System (ECRS)) that were suggested by the experts of the informal working group on Child Restraint Systems (IWG CRS) 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).

Status report on the development of a global technical regulation to address high voltage electrical safety in electric vehicles and their components (such as recharging inlets and rechargeable electric energy storage systems (REESS)). The draft regulation especially concerns flammable electrolytes and covers both in-use and post-crash environments.

Request for clarification concerning head restraint testing configurations.

Proposal to clarify what is and what is not permitted on airbag labels in order to address deviations encountered in current labeling.

Proposal to allow the installation of different light colours on seat-belt buckles to improve visibility. The proposal also addresses the alignment of ambient light designs in modern cars with the functional element of an occupant protection device to support its visual exposition in the vehicle compartment. This document supersedes GRSP/2015/15.

Proposal to require seat-belt reminders for all seating positions, including rear positions, and to clarify the scope of the regulation.
