21. The representatives of Japan and the United Kingdom, co-chairing the informal working group (IWG) on Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), gave a status report on the group’s activities. They reported that the IWG convened on Tuesday, 11 November 2014 from 9.00 to 10.00 a.m. and that this rescheduling on Tuesdays had been welcomed as it allowed the IWG to efficiently report to WP.29. The main purpose of the IWG was to prepare the Terms of Reference (ToR) for future work (the draft ToR is in WP.29-164-28). The Chair of WP.29 underlined the strategic importance of this work, due to major technological developments, and the necessity to prepare flexible and swift actions. He added that IWG could convene prior to the WP.29 sessions, so that the World Forum could incorporate the IWG propositions and recommendations as soon as possible in its programme of work. IWG would have the freedom to adapt its venue according to the needs. WP.29 endorsed WP.29-164-28 subject to further amendments, permitting the IWG to immediately start its work, especially on the high priority issue of definitions of the various levels of automation at a first meeting by the end of this year. WP.29 agreed to formally adopt the ToR at its March 2015 session on the basis of a final proposal to be submitted.
