4. | Review of the proposals related to the modification of the Agreement of 1997 and the Rules

Representative of the Russian Federation, Co-Chair of the group presented the draft Mutual Resolution of the 1997 Agreement concerning the administrative and technical provisions required for carrying out the technical inspections according to the technical prescriptions specified in Rules (document PTI-05-03). The provisions were harmonized with ones prescribed in the Directive 2014/45/EU and other national legislations.

The draft was generally supported.

It was agreed to amend the title of the document to read “Special Resolution”, since it refers to only Agreement.

RUS noted that term “roadworthiness” is not used in the 1997 Agreement, but mentioned in Rule 1 & 2 and in the draft Special Resolution. It was requested whether the term shall be defined. The group decided to put “roadworthiness” in square brackets and formulate position next meeting.

The results of revision of the draft Special Resolution were reproduced in document PTI-05-09, incorporating inputs from Romania (document PTI-05-07).

It was agreed to submit the revised draft Special Resolution for the 170th session of WP.29.

The results of revision of the draft amendments of the 1997 Agreement (document PTI-04-08) were reproduced in document PTI-05-10.

It was agreed to submit the revised draft amendments of the 1997 Agreement for the 170th session of WP.29.

The documents PTI-05-01 and PTI-05-02, containing the requirements for Electric and Hybrid Vehicles and Gas Propelled Vehicles were presented by CITA and the Russian Federation.

The group agreed that Contracting Parties shall keep the right to apply those prescriptions, and, therefore, the proposal is to have them as additional Rules. It was agreed that reasons for failure should be univocally defined, and those aspects already contained in Rule 1 and 2 shouldn’t be repeated.

Secretariat of the group volunteered to make necessary corrections and submit the documents to the next session.
