COUNCIL DECISION (EU) 2024/1253

of 12 June 2023

on the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union in the World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe on proposals for modifications to UN regulation Nos 13, 16, 24, 41, 49, 51, 54, 75, 78, 79, 83, 85, 94, 95, 101, 109, 110, 117, 127, 129, 134, 135, 137, 153 and 155, on a proposal for a new UN regulation on global real driving emissions, on a proposal for a modification to UN GTR No 13, and on a proposal for a new UN GTR on laboratory measurement of brake emissions for light-duty vehicles

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 114, in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) By Council Decision 97/836/EC (1), the Union acceded to the Agreement of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) concerning the adoption of uniform technical prescriptions for wheeled vehicles, equipment and parts which can be fitted to and/or be used on wheeled vehicles and the conditions for reciprocal recognition of approvals granted on the basis of these prescriptions (the ‘Revised 1958 Agreement’). The Revised 1958 Agreement entered into force on 24 March 1998.
(2) By Council Decision 2000/125/EC (2), the Union acceded to the Agreement concerning the establishing of global technical regulations for wheeled vehicles, equipment and parts which can be fitted and/or be used on wheeled vehicles (the ‘Parallel Agreement’). The Parallel Agreement entered into force on 15 February 2000.
(3) Regulation (EU) 2018/858 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) lays down administrative provisions and technical requirements for type approval and placing on the market of all new vehicles, systems, components and separate technical units. That Regulation incorporates regulations adopted under the Revised 1958 Agreement (‘UN regulations’) in the EU type approval system, either as requirements for type approval or as alternatives to Union legislation.
(4) Pursuant to Article 1 of the Revised 1958 Agreement and Article 6 of the Parallel Agreement, the UNECE World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations (WP.29) may adopt proposals for modifications to UN regulations, UN GTRs and UN resolutions, and proposals for new UN regulations, UN GTRs and UN resolutions on the approval of vehicles. Moreover, pursuant to those provisions, UNECE WP.29 may adopt proposals for authorisations to develop amendments to UN GTRs or to develop new UN GTRs, and may adopt proposals for the extension of mandates for UN GTRs.
(5) From 20 to 22 June 2023, during its 190th session, WP.29 may adopt: proposals for modifications to UN regulation Nos 13, 16, 24, 41, 49, 51, 54, 75, 78, 79, 83, 85, 94, 95, 101, 109, 110, 117, 127, 129, 134, 135, 137, 153 and 155; a proposal for a new UN regulation on global real driving emissions; a proposal for a modification to UN GTR No 13; and a proposal for a new UN GTR on laboratory measurement of brake emissions for light-duty vehicles.
(6) The UN regulations will be binding on the Union. Together with the UN GTRs, they will decisively influence the content of Union law in the field of vehicle type approval. Therefore, it is appropriate to establish the position to be taken on the Union’s behalf in WP.29 on the adoption of those proposals.
(7) To reflect experience and technical developments, the requirements for certain aspects or features covered by UN regulation Nos 13, 16, 24, 41, 49, 51, 54, 75, 78, 79, 83, 85, 94, 95, 101, 109, 110, 117, 127, 129, 134, 135, 137, 153 and 155, and UN GTR No 13 need to be amended or supplemented.
(8) In order to allow for technical progress and in order to reduce environmental footprint, a new UN regulation on global real driving emissions and a new UN GTR on laboratory measurement of brake emissions for light-duty vehicles need to be adopted,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The position to be taken on the Union’s behalf in the 190th session of the UNECE World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations to be held from 20 to 22 June 2023 shall be to vote in favour of the proposals listed in the Annex to this Decision.

Article 2

This Decision shall enter into force on the date of its adoption.
Done at Luxembourg, 12 June 2023.

The President
J. PEHRSON
(1)  Council Decision 97/836/EC of 27 November 1997 with a view to accession by the European Community to the Agreement of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe concerning the adoption of uniform technical prescriptions for wheeled vehicles, equipment and parts which can be fitted to and/or be used on wheeled vehicles and the conditions for reciprocal recognition of approvals granted on the basis of these prescriptions (‘Revised 1958 Agreement’) (
OJ L 346, 17.12.1997, p. 78
).
(2)  Council Decision 2000/125/EC of 31 January 2000 concerning the conclusion of the Agreement concerning the establishing of global technical regulations for wheeled vehicles, equipment and parts which can be fitted and/or be used on wheeled vehicles (‘Parallel Agreement’) (
