Page 29: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

history of the activities of Japan on the ECE/WP29 was likewise presented: In 1977 Japan declared attendance to WP29 as observer; 1987 establishment of JASIC head office in Geneva; 1998 JAPAN acceded to UNECE 1958 Agreement; and 1999 Japan acceded to UNECE 1998 Agreement. He made a presentation on the activities of Japan in ECE/WP29, which is the amendment to ECE regulations and information. Mr. Shima cited also the adoption of ECE/WP29 regulations in Japan wherein the aim of adopting ECE regulations is under the1958 Agreement. He made mention also of the list of ECE-WP29 from 1998-2007.

Philippines

Ms. Florencia Creus, Chief, Operations Division, Land Transportation Office, DOTC, Philippines, presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulations and mutual recognition of approvals in the Philippines. The Philippines attended the World Forum for harmonization of vehicle regulations as observer on June 20-23, 2006 and June 25 – 29, 2007. Lack of understanding on the whole concept of WP29 and its agreements hinders participation to the WP29 but the problem can be resolved by continuous education for both motor vehicle industry and government through attendance to the experts meetings and other activities where WP29 and its agreements are being discussed.

In the Philippine roadmap on harmonization of MV regulations and standards, the Philippine intends to accede to the 1958 Agreement in 2008 and in the 1998 Agreement in 2010 but due to legal process involving legislation and ratification of the Senate it may take sometime. The following are the various considerations for the Philippine Accession to 1958/1998 Agreements: government’s ability and expertise; local industries’ capability to comply with UNECE regulations; necessity to implement various regulations; and some ECE regulations may conflict with existing Philippine National Standards, Department Administrative Order, and etc. Executive Order No 628 creating a committee on the Harmonization of Vehicle Standards and Regulations was issued to address the harmonization of existing rules and regulations of various government agencies involved in the development and regulations of motor vehicles. Ms. Creus made updates on the introduction of ECE regulations, progress of domestic activity for standards and regulations harmonization and creation of sub-committees under EO 628. She mentioned that the progress of domestic activities for regulation harmonization in the conduct of testing and certification is hampered by lack of expertise, equipment and infrastructure. Likewise lack of proper coordination among government agencies and private sectors contributed in the delay of the implementation, but this may be resolved with the creation of the sub-committees under EO 628.

Finally, Ms. Creus made mention that the series of G/I meetings should support the Asian countries in the participation to the WP29 by providing guidelines in the establishment of ECE regulations and MRA in holding the Asian Expert Meetings and should be funded by bilateral cooperation. With regards to the Expert Meeting on Noise Standard and Regulations, the Committee on the Harmonization of Vehicle

Page 30: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

Standards and Regulations (CHVSR) would like to propose for the passing of the Noise Control Act with some information on the process and technology.

o Ms. Creus answered the question of the representative from Indonesia on the

composition of the CHVSR under Executive Order 628 wherein the Chairman is the Secretary of the Department of Transportation and Communications

Chinese Taipei

Sheng-Jung Hsieh of the Automotive Research and Testing Center presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulations and mutual recognition of approval in Taiwan. Chinese Taipei is willing to participate in the WP29 and/or GRs but they are not yet a member of the United Nations, and so with the accession to the 1958/1998 Agreements. He mentioned the latest situation on WP29 and 1958/1998 Agreements wherein they already adopted 25 ECEs in 2006 and plan to adopt 18 ECEs by 2010 and 8 ECEs after 2010. He cited the problems on the regulation harmonization wherein they need help to clarify the details of the testing, certification and COP in the regulation of ECE and they also need information on the revision of ECE regulations and how to regulate some technology that has not been regulated yet.

He also made comments that it is not suitable for them to accept the UNECE certificate unilaterally since Taiwan is not a contracting party to the 1958 Agreement and MRA, but MOTC is open to talk about the subject of mutual recognition or mutual acceptance of type approval certificate if other countries consider it necessary.

Vietnam

A representative from Vietnam, representing Mr. Pham Quang Thanh, Vietnam Register, Ministry of Transport presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulations and mutual recognition of approval in Vietnam. The 9th Expert Meeting on accession to the 1958 Agreement was held in April 2007 in Hanoi with 80 participants from Asian countries and co-organized by 3 countries, Japan, Thailand and Vietnam. JASIC presented the outline and explanation of the 1958 Agreement, Vietnam presented the application of ECE regulations and Thailand presented their experiences in the accession to 1958 Agreement. Vietnam planned to participate to the 1958/1998 Agreements by 2010. He made a presentation on the main work of Vietnam in the coming years: the conversion of the existing mandatory standards base on ECE regulations into National Technical Regulations (NTR) to be finished by 2009; the withdrawal of local unique standards not suited to international standards by 2008; the step by step conversion of the existing volunteer standards based on ECE R into NTR; and to continue to develop step by step new National Technical Standards (NTS) based on ECE R. They will also introduce ECR regulations by 2007, 2008 and 2010 and continue to attend the WP29 meetings and establish the national working group preparation for the accession to the 1958 Agreement.

Thailand

Page 31: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

A representative from Thailand presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation and mutual recognition of approval in Thailand. Thailand is attending WP29 once a year and the GRs every 2 years. They acceded to the 1958 Agreement in 2006 wherein they encounter no problems because foreseen problems have been under control. They did not accede yet to 1998 Agreement because there are no clear cut benefits in the 1998 Agreement over 1958 Agreement and also because of manpower constraint. She made mentioned of the plans to introduce UNECE regulations by 2010, 11 DLT and 53 TISI. The latest situation on WP29 and 1958/1998 Agreements were presented in which after 2010 they plan to continue the set up and the outcome of previous implementation which should first be completed. The main problems they encountered were the inflexibility of legal process, insufficient expertise, manpower constraint and test facilities required for TISI, which is a compulsory standard. She discussed the progress of regulation harmonization in which the amendment of Ministerial Regulation No. 22 was approved by the Cabinet in January 2007 and was also considered by the Council of State. The DLT was discussed to the Council twice in May and July 2007 and drafted the notification in line with the UNECE regulations for the Council’s consideration. The present vehicle/component certification systems and DLT vehicle approval type system exists under the Land Transport Act and no conformity is available yet for the small vehicle. The TISI component/system type approval system is a compulsory standard. With regards to the upgrading of certification process they amended the MR22-add vehicle parts type approval system under Motor Vehicle Act (MVA); drafted WVTA for MVA – amending MVA under the Council’s consideration; and plan to accept UNECE certificate only on regulation adopted in WP29. New theme of the GI Meeting will be approved if they will be educated by the type approval system in the same direction and take into consideration different background of each country, the legal structure and administrative agencies, and the topic on the next expert meeting to be discussed by the TAIA.

Singapore

The representative from the Industry of Singapore presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation and mutual recognition of approval in Singapore. Singapore considers participating in the WP29 as an observer in the year 2008/2009. With regards to decision to sign in the Agreements would have to be made by the Singapore Government at the Cabinet level. The Ministry of Transport and the Land Transport Authority would submit a proposal, in consultation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for Cabinet consideration. Singapore accepts vehicles that have already been designed and tested to comply with the UNECE regulations or other international standards. They already have 6 items references to the UNECE regulations and plan to adopt 47 items more. Singapore is not a vehicle-manufacturing country and vehicles complied with the UNECE regulations were not subjected to additional tests and still they are market friendly, therefore there is no strong justification or immediate need to sign the

Page 32: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

1958/1998 Agreements. The government and industry hold a regular dialogue with Motor Traders Association of Singapore on matters concerning the new regulations and requirements including the adoption of UNECE regulations. And finally they consider participating in the Expert Meetings organized by other countries.

Malaysia

A representative from Malaysia presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation and mutual recognition of approval in Malaysia. Malaysia was accepted by United Nation to become a contracting party of the 1958/1998 Agreements on April 4, 2006 though they acceded to the 1958/1998 Agreements, they did not become a contracting party to any of the UNECE regulations. Ministry of Transport and Road Transport Department was given the responsibility of coordinating and participating in the WP29 activities for Malaysia. He discussed the introduction to the vehicle type approval system in Malaysia in which this control the construction of motor vehicle and update technical data and records prior to the registration and licensing of vehicles by RTD; this requirements applies to all new models that are to be registered with the RTD effective January 1, 2005; and that all vehicles needs to undergo VTA inspection and road test by RTD before it can be approved for registration. The purpose of which are to ensure compliance of legal requirements by locally manufactured/assembled/new and imported used vehicles, wherein the legal framework is the Road Transport Act of 1987; Construction and Use Rules of 1959; and other regulations made under the act. He presented the vehicle type approval process chart and vehicle type approval application format. Finally, he made mention on the constraints encountered in the establishment of vehicle type approval and the counter measures as well. Malaysia’s requests were welcomed by Japan and ASEAN industry to establish harmonization of VTA in Asian/ASEAN countries by 2015.

Myanmar

Mr. U Khin Maung Lin, Chief Engineer, Road Transport Administration Department presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation and mutual recognition of approval in Malaysia. Type approval system in Malaysia controls the motor vehicle registration and update technical data and records in Road Transport Administration Department wherein all vehicles need to undergo Vehicle Type Approval Roadworthiness prior to registration. He made mention that Myanmar is still in the process of considering the participation to WP29 or GRs. As member of the ASEAN Myanmar accepts or recognizes the certificate issued by the ASEAN member countries and only when Myanmar becomes UNECE member they will consider accepting UNECE certificate. On the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation, they would like to participate in the coming G/I meetings, attend all coming expert meetings and wish to hold expert meeting after 2010.

Lao PDR Mr. Bounta Kaunlavong, Director of Planning and Budgeting Division, Department of Transport, Ministry of CTPC presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation and mutual recognition of approval in Lao PDR. Mr. Kaunlavong

enumerated contents of his presentation - the vehicle statistics, tariff rates, importation in CKD and CBU and authorities of Lao PDR taking part in harmonization of regulation. The agencies involve in harmonization of technical regulation and mutual recognition of approval was the Science Technology and Environment Agency, Ministry of Public Works and Transport and Ministry of Industry and Commerce. The Ministry of Public Works and Transport is the one responsible in issuing or undertaking the issuance of certificate in the registration of imported motor vehicle. They also have the regulation on safety, which is the wearing of helmet and etc. Concerning the assessment, ratification and adoption to the 1958/1998 agreements they still have to know the availability of their resources.

Korea

Mr. Eundok Lee, Senior Researcher, Korea Automobile Testing and Research Institute presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation and mutual recognition of approval in Korea. As a background, he made mention the importance in the enforcement of NCAP and self-certification to ensure safety of the in-use vehicles in Korea. The exponential increase of low products endangers the safety of passengers, which generate consumer’s complaints, that leads to the serious social problems in Korea. He presented the overview system on the part of the manufacturer and importer in which self-certification of parts and equipment complies with safety regulation and standards prior to sale. On the part of the government, investigation of parts and equipment complies with safety regulations and standards after sale. Mr. Lee made a discussion on the action and the benefit it will provide.

Indonesia

A representative from Indonesia presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation and mutual recognition of approval in Indonesia. There is no adequate perception among ministries/departments who are also the stakeholders with regards to the responsibility in automotive sector. Like in the Ministry of Energy the Euro 2 standard emission was already implemented and yet they are still facing the problem in the application of fuel that would be appropriate for the standard, which become difficult for the car manufacturer who already produced the engine with Euro 2 standards. The Ministry of Finance was informed on the importance of joining the WP29 and implementation of the UNECE standards. They started to become an observer last year and continue to be an observer again in March if the Ministry of Finance will give them the budget. It is important for them to deeply understand the discussion in the WP29 meeting especially with the problem they are facing which should be resolved one-by-one and hoping that just like the Philippines they can create a committee to be signed by their president to implement the program. The representative from Indonesia appreciated the concern of Mr. Akiba in guiding the Asian countries and automotive industry to be developed. He presented also the newly launched activities to help promote harmonization and the future prospect for development.

India Mr. K C Behera, Undersecretary, Department of Road Transport & Highways presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation and mutual recognition of approval in India. India is a signatory to the 1998 Agreement but not a contracting party to the 1958 Agreement. They hold several meetings considering the possibility of joining the 1958 Agreement. Activities started in 2006 when India participated in WP29. Mr. Behera discussed the latest situation on WP29 and the 1958/1998 Agreements in which the government of India signed the 1998 Agreement in February 2006 and actively participated with the signatory countries and contributed to the global technical regulations. In principle their national policy has to be aligned to the national standards with the ECE regulations. They are reviewing the implications of the 1958 Agreement and learn the experiences of the Asian countries and pay attention to the country specific requirements. He also enumerated the highlights of their participation to WP29. The status of their plan to align with the ECE regulations was already 74%.

China

Mr. Oyan Tau of China Automotive Technology and Research Center presented the progress of harmonization of vehicle regulation and mutual recognition of approval in China. China started to participate in WP29 and some GTRs activities in 1996 and acceded to 1998 Agreement in 2000. China Automotive Technology and Research Center has been providing technical support to comment in their participation to WP29 and responsible in organizing experts from the industry to participate in GRs activities. They participated in various meetings of the GTRs in 2007 and such effort will be continued and will even be intensified by 2008 onwards. As a contracting party to the 1998 agreement, China actively takes part in the department of GTRs and reflects the real situation in the GTR. With respect to the 1958 Agreement on how to harmonize the GTRs, China started the regional standard and introduced the GTRs to the regulatory system. The study has to wait because there is no definite accession yet and there is a need to promote the vehicle safety and environmental protection. 80 ECE regulations have already been introduced to the regulatory system. Mr. Tau enumerated the problems encountered in their participation to WP29. He mentioned that the administration of auto industry and type approval system is complicated. He did mention also the different functions of the government agencies involved in the program and the procedures for approval of new types of auto products.

Wrap-Up of 12th RACE (Regulation and Certification Experts) Meeting<WP29 Main Updates>1. The automobile associations in Asia were informed by JAMA that the Japanese governments (MLIT) and JASIC have officially announced the proposal to establish the Whole Vehicle Certification System by 2015 in the 142nd Session of WP29 this June.

<Adoption of UNECE Regulations>2. On the needs of some Asian countries to incorporate UNECE regulations into national regulations, the industry reached a consensus on the following steps:

Step1: Adopt UNECE regulations as an optional requirement in parallel with current regulation. (i.e. Manufacturers to be allowed for either option)

Step 2: Enforce UNECE regulations as mandatory and replace current national regulations, if necessary.

3. The industry wishes each government in Asia to solve the following obstacles in adopting UNECE regulations:(i) Asian countries, in general, have yet to accede the 1958 Agreement (ii) difficulties in building of testing facilities and human resource;(iii) different UNECE regulations adopting plans of each Asia country that create a

barrier towards the facilitation of MRA;

Page 61: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

(iv) capacity and awareness issues of local component makers.

4. The Meeting confirmed that there are different definitions of“adoption”/“adaptation”/ “reference”/ “alignment” towards UNECE regulations.

<Establishment of vehicle type approval system>

5. The following problems in establishing VTA Systems amongst Asian countries are identified in the Meeting:(i) Regulation of VTA not backed up by official gazette ;(ii) No comprehensive regulation and unique procedures ;(iii) Unique domestic vehicles might not be able to comply with VTA System ;(iv) no single/centralized government agency to take charge of T/A system ;(v) limited certification experts in government sector ;(vi) lacking of a national committee in making coherent policies across each vehicle

regulations related ministries ;(vii) Existing law is not empowered to establish VTA ;(viii) limited government financial resources to facilitate VTA system

ECE1, 2, 8, 12, 15, 18, 20, 32, 84, 97, can be replaced by other ECE regulations.

• ECE59, 67, 90,103,108,109,114,115, are for aftermarket parts.(Since ECE44, 55 are accessory parts, these might be necessary for vehicle type approval.)

• ECE87 is unnecessary for the countries which are close to the equator.

• ECE33, 35, 42 are old design requirements.

• ECE27,68 are not for vehicle construction requirement.

Guideline of Step-by-Step ECE Reg. introduction

Note;It is sometimes difficult to make sure and conform for interpretation of Interior Fittings and External Projections(ECE21,26). In general, If clash safety requirement(ECE94,95) will be adopted, it seems that it is not so much important for them. So, ECE21,26 and 61 are added for blanket.

Deputy Director, Ministry of Industry and Trade, Indonesia

INFORMATION ON ASEAN CONSULTATIVE COMMITTEE ON STANDARDS AND QUALITY -

AUTOMOTIVE PRODUCT WORKING GROUP (ACCSQ-APWG) ACTIVITIES

Distinguished participants, Ladies and Gentlemen, Assalamu’alaikum Wr.Wb. First of all I would like to thank the JASIC Meeting organizer for the opportunity to brief the meeting on the activities of ACCSQ’s Auto Product Working Group, which was tasked to handle harmonization of automotive standard and technical regulation in ASEAN. At the 24th ACCSQ Meeting held in Kuala Lumpur from 3rd – 4th August 2004, the ASEAN Leaders agreed to establish 5 Product Working Groups namely working group on automotive, wood base product, traditional medicine and health supplement, rubber based product and medical devices in order to facilitate harmonization of standard in ASEAN. Since its establishment, the Product Working Group on Automotive (APWG) has organized 6 times meeting, the latest one in July 2007 in Hanoi-Viet Nam. The main objective of APWG is to help ACCSQ in the elimination of technical barrier to trade related to automotive products. The APWG in its effort to facilitate standard harmonization has done the following: 1. Exchanging information on standards, rules, regulations, procedures and mandatory

requirements in each ASEAN member country related to automotive sector. To date, the APWG has collected all those information and have analyzed them to see their respective similarities and differences.

2. Identifying areas for possible harmonization and MRAs with the focus on harmonization of Asean automotive safety and emission standard based on UN-ECE regulation.

3. At the 6th APWG meeting held in Hanoi, Vietnam, member countries have agreed to adopt some UN-ECE regulations for automotive such as: R16 (safety belts), R30 ( pneumatic tyres for PV), R54 (pneumatic tyres for CV), R22 (motorcycle helmet), R43 (safety glass and emission& environment), R40 (exhaust emission for motorcycle), R49 (diesel emission), R83 (gaseous pollutant), R41 (noise for motorcycle), and R51 (noise). Member countries agreed that the timeframe for completion of alignment with each national standard will be by 31 December 2008 with flexibility for Cambodia, Lao PDR and Myanmar.

4. Identifying required technical infrastructures for the establishment of mutual recognition arrangements for product’s conformance and assessment. At this present,

1

Page 118: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

member countries are in the process of studying the suitable system to be applied on standard conformance and assessment.

Ladies and gentlemen, APWG do realize that the needs for another media in addition to the existing formal APWG’s meetings, such as ASEAN Portal Application (ASAP) – the web based application is very important in order to facilitate further in depth discussion and exchange of information related to automotive standard as well as facilitating the transparencies of information among ASEAN member countries. ASEAN member countries have varied level of capabilities in adopting UN-ECE and to become a member of WP29. APWG in its work has reviewed and analyzed the list of UNE-ECE regulation related to automotive in order to identify possible area for harmonization and has found that harmonization of standard should be conducted in a gradual manner. It is obvious that some obstacles are still exist in our way to reach automotive standard and regulation harmonization in ASEAN due especially to the following four facts: 1. Uniqueness of characteristics of standards in each ASEAN member country. 2. Shortage of English version of standards and regulation of each ASEAN member

country. 3. Varied or different reference using in developing standards and regulation in each

ASEAN member country. 4. Shortage of expertise in standardization especially for ECE-Regulation experts. Ladies and gentlemen, The APWG is ofcourse opened for and in need of any input from both private sectors as well as from any well-established institution. APWG thank to: 1. ASEAN Automotive Federation who has provided APWG its invaluable inputs

regarding our effort in pursuing harmonization such as on 1) the focus of harmonization which is on safety, certification and environment, 2) the focus of safety aspect which is on safety belt, tyre, and safety glass, 3) the implementation of type approval system which is in line with UN-ECE regulation, and 4) the time frame for implementation of EURO standard which is at latest 2008 for EURO-2 and end of 2012 for EURO-4.

2. Japan Automobile Standards Internationalization Center (JASIC) gave a presentation on the

UNECE 1958 Agreement covering issues such as mutual recognition approval of contracting parties and rights and duties of contracting parties.

3. JAMA for its invaluable inputs on Vehicle Type Approval System, which the development

of a Vehicle Type Approval (VTA) System for Car Registration with clear technical requirements within this VTA System for ASEAN would help simplify procedures in the

2

Page 119: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

region with the view to align regulations with the UN-ECE Regulations. It is may be a good activity to begin with under the ASEAN–Japan cooperation. It is also an activity in line with the strategies of the APWG work programmed, namely enhancing conformity assessment/ technical infrastructure in ASEAN, building mutual confidence in conformity assessment/technical infrastructure, and developing cooperation with Dialogue Partners.

APWG propose to JAMA to consider technical assistance and capacity building programmed on accession to the WP 29, UN ECE 1958 Agreement (rights and duties), Vehicle Type Approval Systems and COP, harmonization of emission standards, human resource training and development, and enhancing testing capabilities of automotive testing facilities.

4. US Department of Commerce which has been hold a workshop on “Biofuels and Automotive

Industry”. Biofuels as an alternative fuel is needed to reduce our dependences from gasoline and our effort to reduce greenhouse gases (CO2) and also 1998 agreement is introduces as a way to implement global regulation is needed.

Ladies and gentlemen, APWG is also opened for any input from developed countries in the world who would like to offer their helping hand to help ASEAN in accelerating ASEAN’s effort in pursuing automotive standard and technical regulation. I do hope this meeting will produce fruitful deliverables that benefit to all participants especially for ASEAN countries in their effort to pursuing standard and technical regulatory harmonization. Thank you very much for your attention. Wassalamu’alaikum Wr.Wb. Syarif Hidayat Chair of APWG

Hong Kong NA

India India has started participation in WP.29 and GR sessions since 2003 and about 50 various sessions were participated by Indian delegation which are of national interest.

Indonesia

Indonesia already came to WP 29 as observer in Nov 2005 and June 2007, and will continuously participate as observer. Problem and countermeasure in continuing the participation: a. Coordination among ministries/department who are the stakeholder in regard of their

responsibility in automotive sector. b. Financial problem: convince the Finance Department and National Planning Board of

the importance of this meeting for the development of automotive industries. (to make it as nation budgetary)

Japan Japan has been participated since 1977. (In the beginning, Japan participated as observer.)

Korea What Problems do you have on your country’s participation in WP29 and GRs? - No problem.

Laos

- Not yet indicated time frame - Need to get understanding the WP29 and GRs - Introduce the WP29 and GRs by organizing

Country level workshops/seminars and set up a group national expert/committee for studying, translating and asking for approval from Government

Malaysia We have attended the meeting twice. So far, the only problem we are facing is budget constraint to send our officers to attend the meeting in Europe. We would like to propose for WP29 meetings to be rotated in different region such as Asia.

Myanmar We are still in the process of consideration to participate in WP29 or GR.

Philippines The Philippines attended the WP 29 World Forum as observer on June 20-23, 2006 and June 25-29, 2007.

Singapore Plan to consider participation in WP29 as an observer in the year 2008/2009.

Thailand

Budget constraint and lack of expertise are our main problems for continuous WP.29 participation. The ways to solve these problems are vary, e.g. maximize utilization of existing budget and expertise, recruit new engineer from abroad, looking for other financial support.

Vietnam 2 times: in 2004 and this year - the 142nd session between 26-29 June no problems

Chinese Taipei Chinese Taipei is willing to participate in the WP.29 and/or GRs. But since Chinese Taipei is not a member of the UN, there is still difficulty for us to participate in the WP.29 and/or GRs.

India

Government of India is examining the pros and cons of signing 1958 Agreement with its all stake holders. Ministry of Road Transport & Highways is the nodal agency in dealing with the matters related to WP 29. Under the Chairmanship of Joint Secretary, MoSRTH, a National Standing Committee is formulated. All the stakeholders like vehicle manufacturers, component manufacturers, test agencies, government agencies; Bureau of Indian Standards, etc are the members of this standing committee. Government of India has presently entrusted Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) with the responsibility of providing Technical Secretariat assistance to the National Standing Committee on WP 29 matters. ARAI is the premier testing and research organization having state of the art facility and expertise in the automotive field. Under this standing committee, 6 special working groups are formed as mirror committees to 6 GR groups of WP 29 (namely GRE, GRRF, GRPE, GRSP, GRSG and GRB). India had started active participation in this important global activity. Each of the above groups deals with specific subjects/ regulations. The group members are the technical experts from vehicle/component manufacturer’s and test agencies. Extensive technical deliberations bring out national viewpoints on every subject, which are consolidated by the secretariat. Wherever national participation is felt necessary, delegation is sent by the Government to participate in respective meetings in Geneva or other host countries. To ensure representation of national interest and compliance to the national policies, in the right perspective, suitable briefing sessions are held at ARAI with all concerned stakeholders. The National Standing Committee takes final decision.

Japan Japan has been participated WP29 since 1977 and acceded to the 1958 Agreement in 1998 and the 1998 Agreement in 1999 respectively. Now we participate to all GRs.

Korea No problem.

Laos The harmonization has been in line with ASEAN and GMS Cooperation Agreements.

Malaysia No problem. Malaysia is supporting Regulations harmonization in ASIAN/ASEAN countries. Currently, the department is reviewing any possible problems to harmonize vehicle regulations in Malaysia.

Myanmar

As we are a member of ASEAN, we have undertaken our regulation to be harmonized with that of ASEAN. We have no specific problem currently encountered in promoting the harmonization with ASEAN, but we would need technical assistance and National Workshop to promote the harmonization with ECE regulation.

Philippines

1. Drafting of the National Strategic Standardization Master Plan for Automotive by the Philippine Working Group on Automotive

2. Conduct of Planning Workshops on motor vehicle standards and regulations harmonization participated by DOTC-LTO, DTI-BPS, DENR-EMB, DOE, TMG.

3. Drafting of the Roadmap for Harmonization of Vehicle Standards and Regulations 4. Issuance of Executive Order 628 creating the Committee on Harmonization of Vehicle

Standards and Regulations 5. Drafting of the Implementing Rules and Regulations of Executive Order 628. The progress of the domestic activity for regulation harmonization is hampered by the lack of technical expertise, equipment and infrastructure to conduct testing and certifications. Lack of proper coordination among government agencies and private organizations likewise affect the implementations of programs and projects.

Singapore

Singapore is not a vehicle-manufacturing country. We currently accept vehicles that have been designed and tested to comply with UNECE Regulations and do not subject vehicles to additional tests. Hence, we are already market-friendly. Therefore, there are currently no strong justifications or immediate need to sign the 1958 and 1998 Agreements.

Thailand

Amendment of Ministerial Regulation No.22 under Motor Vehicle Act (1979) is a key regulation harmonization activity for passenger car , pickup truck and motorcycle on their vehicle systems/parts. In January 2007 the cabinet approved the principle of the amendment and sent to the Council of State to scrutinize. DLT has discussed with the Council twice: May and July 2007. Simultaneously Notification on UNECE regulations in 2-5 has been studied and drafted. Some of them were sent to Thai Automotive Industry Association (TAIA) for requesting official comments, e.g. R11, R51, R48. Thus, as soon as the amendment of MR.22 has been enforced, the notification will be announced and enforced. The best way to do is to encourage the Council in speedy scrunity.

Vietnam

- Outline of the progress of domestic activity for regulation (reg) harmonization: Keep direction of adopting ECE regs. determinedly by annually issuing of volunteer standards and national technical regulations based on ECE regs;

- Problems currently encountered: Lack of testing facility in compliance with ECE regs., technology and financial capacity of domestic manufacturers regarding compliance with most ECE regs. is weak (generally, assembly companies with small production scale – too many companies who shares a small market). For Vietnam, the weak capacity of the companies is main, big and difficult problem to overcome during the process of ECE res. introduction.

- Newly launching activities to help promote harmonization: implement the Law of technical standards and regulations which enforced on the 1st January 2007. There will be the short - term to long - term roadmaps to convert the technical standards based on ECE regs. into technical regulations, to replace non – equivalent to ECE regs. old standards by regulations equivalent to ECE regs.

- Prospect of future development: It mainly depends on the future of Vietnam automotive industry after Vietnam joins the WTO.

Chinese Taipei

1. Chinese Taipei needs help to clarify the detail of the testing, certification and COP in these ECE Regulations. And we also need the information about the revision of ECE regulations.

2. For some new technology which has not regulated in the regulations (Ex. LED Headlamp), how to regulate it?

Question 3: Comments for Panel Discussion 3-1: Please advise the outline of the present vehicle/component certification processes in your country. China gazette system, CCC system

Hong Kong We encourage manufacturer to get the UN/ECE certificate because that will be the basic requirement in future. We have no plan/need to develop the component approval system by ourselves.

India

In India the Rules and Regulations related to driving license, registration of motor vehicles, control of traffic, construction & maintenance of motor vehicles etc are governed by the Motor Vehicles Act 1988 (MVA) and the Central Motor Vehicles rules 1989 (CMVR). The Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport & Highways (MoSRT&H) acts as a nodal agency for formulation and implementation of various provisions of the Motor Vehicle Act and CMVR. In order to involve all stake holders in regulation formulation, MoSRT&H has constituted two Committees to deliberate and advise Ministry on issues relating to Safety and Emission Regulations, namely – -CMVR- Technical Standing Committee (CMVR-TSC) -Standing Committee on Implementation of Emission Legislation (SCOE) CMVR-TSC is assisted by another Committee called the Automobile Industry Standards Committee (AISC) having members from various stakeholders in drafting the technical standards related to Safety. Director, ARAI is the Chairman of this committee and ARAI provides Secretariat. The National Standards for Automotive Industry are prepared by Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). The standards formulated by both BIS and AISC are considered by CMVR-TSC for implementation. Standing Committee on Implementation of Emission Legislation (SCOE) deliberates the issues related to implementation of emission regulation. Based on the recommendations from CMVR-TSC and SCOE, MoSRT&H issues notification for necessary amendments / modifications in the in Central Motor Vehicle Rules. In addition, the other Ministries like Ministry of Environment & Forest (MoEF), Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas (MoPNG) and Ministry of Non-conventional Energy Sources are also involved in formulation of regulations relating to Emissions, Noise, Fuels and Alternative Fuel vehicles. Every vehicle type is required to comply with the safety and emission standards, which are notified on the date of manufacturing of the vehicle. Manufacture submits the vehicle/ components to the notified test agencies for necessary testing and approval. Type approval certificate from the notified test agency is a pre-requisite for registration of every vehicle. Conformity of Production Certificate for compliance to emission regulations is required for the vehicles in production. For this purpose, test agency randomly selects the vehicle from production line.

Indonesia Attached.

Japan There is a Type Designation of Motor Vehicles System and Type Designation of Devices System in Japan and the designation for devices type is utilized at the time of motor vehicle type designation.

Korea

Self-certification system is in effect in Korea since January 1st, 2003. 1. Manufacturer/importer registers with MOCT before manufacturing or importing

vehicles. 2. Labels affixed to vehicles upon declaration by the manufacturer/importer that the

vehicles are in compliance with all applicable safety standards 3. Manufacturer/importer notifies MOCT of vehicle specification before selling vehicles 4. The government (MOCT) authorized institute (KATRI) purchases vehicles randomly

investigates the compatibility of safety standards and possibility of manufacturing 5. After investigation, correction measures are prescribed if safety defect is founded.

Laos Issued by Department of Transport before import and Registration.

Malaysia Please refer to Malaysia presentation on Malaysia WVTA.

Myanmar

In our country, vehicle Inspection Certificate (VIC) is issued to every vehicle after being inspected annually. But issuing certificate for vehicle components has not been undertaken. VIC is issued by Road Transport Administration Department which is under the Ministry of Rail Transportation.

Philippines ---

Singapore

Singapore accepts vehicles that have been designed and tested to comply with UNECE Regulations or other international standards, such as the Japanese Safety Regulations and US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, or their equivalent. Currently, motor agents are required to submit the vehicle manufacturer’s certification and test reports for a list of applicable vehicle components, among other documents, through our electronic Vehicle Inspection & Type-Approval System (VITAS) for vehicle type approval applications. In addition to the documents, motor agents are required to send 1 unit of the new vehicle make and model for an inspection. Once the vehicle model has been type approved, there is no need to send subsequent units of the same vehicle make and model for inspection so long as they conform to the same specifications as the unit that was type approved.

Thailand

A whole vehicle approval for LTA is carried out by Department of Land Transport. Resembling a system in other countries, the car manufacturer is required to submit applications, documents providing vehicles drawings/pictures, technical information pursuance to the related laws, and other documents (if any) to DLT to be initially checked. A vehicle sample must be submitted for inspection, measurement, and necessary tests e.g. dimensions, weights, mandatory items, basic performance tests, etc. But no Conformity of Production is yet implemented. There are some compulsory standards for vehicle parts/systems e.g. safety belts, safety glasses, motorcycle exhaust muffler, engines, emissions. Those standards are certified by Thailand Industrial Standard Institute (TISI).

Vietnam

The present vehicle/component certification processes regulated by the 4 Decisions of MT minister (No. 34 for produced automobiles, No. 35 for imported automobiles, No. 2557 for produced motorcycles and mopeds, No. 1378 for imported motorcycles and mopeds).

- Step 1: Manufacturers submit the application for type approval of produced vehicle/component. In cases of imported vehicles, importers submit the application for quality certification of imported vehicles/engines (in cases of motorcycles and mopeds).

- Step 2: Examination of the application for type approval - Step 3: Test/inspection

* In case of produced vehicle/component: Testing samples of the vehicle/component type that needs approval. At the same time, examinating manufactures’ capacities on COP.

* In cases of imported vehicles (only second hand automobiles, and motorcycles and mopeds): Inspecting all second hand automobiles, samples of each imported motorcycle, moped batch.

- Step 4: Grant type approval certificate (produced vehicles/components) or quality certificate (imported vehicles/components).

In addition (only produced vehicles/components): Annually, authority extend or withdraw type approval certificate based on considering conditions regarding quality of products.

Chinese Taipei

For safety type approval: Application →Accept of application and scheduling →vehicle/component inspection/testing →Examination of testing result/COP plan →Certification report →MOTC review →Certificate producing →MOTC approval →Issue of certificate →Periodic COP check

3-2: Would your country plan to upgrade certification processes in accordance with planned introduction of the UN/ECE regulations in the future? If so, please advise the outline and timing. What problems do you have on establishment of vehicle type approval in your country? How should you resolve these problems? China ---

Hong Kong No.

India Our type approval procedure is similar to the whole vehicle type approval procedure followed in ECE. Our national safety and emission standards are also based on ECE regulations to certain extent. Full alignment with ECE regulations is planned for future.

Indonesia Not yet.

Japan NA

Korea The introduction of parts and equipment self-certification system is considered to enhance safety of motor vehicle parts and equipment.

Laos ---

Malaysia Yes. The Government would review on the necessity to strengthen the current certification processes in National Vehicle Type Approval Committee and would consult industry for inputs.

Thailand

Ministry of Transport by Department of Land Transport set up a 10-year plan to improve vehicle certification systems called Implementation Plan for Vehicle Type Approval Establishment (2000-2009). The core objectives are to establish type approval system for vehicles under Motor Vehicle Act 1979 and to improve the type approval system under Land Transport Act 1979 along with improving national vehicle regulations in line with regulations internationally accepted. A whole vehicle type approval for passenger cars and pickup trucks under MVA is the first priority to draft. The final draft will be finalized and enforced if the merging act: LTA and MVA, is enforced first. In addition, amendment of MR.22 under MVA, not only add more essential vehicle system/parts for safety and environmental protection but also authority to type approval of vehicle systems/parts.

Vietnam

- The procedure regulations and regulation on mandatory standrads list regarding motorcycles and mopeds are in revision and will be issued this year by MOT.

- Problems: Local companies are not real manufacturers in accordance with its meaning at the countries having developed automobile industry but are real vehicle assembly companies.

- Therefore, the certification procedure is not able as same as ECE’s ones; document for type approval has to be simplified. In addition, COP is also changed so that suitable to the companies.

Chinese Taipei NA

3-3: Would your country plan to accept UN/ECE certificates issued by the UN/ECE member countries? China Yes or No: No

Hong Kong Yes or No: Yes We will consider to review our local regulation and to accept the UN/ECE certificates as a proof of compliance through legislation if necessary.

India Yes or No: - As explained in para 2.2, India is in the process of considering the accession to 1958 Agreement. Mutual exchange of reports will be considered subsequently.

Indonesia Yes or No: Yes After become contracting party of WP29 and accede the 1958 Agreement.

Japan NA

Korea No Plan.

Laos Not yet scheduled.

Malaysia Yes or No: Yes Currently, the RTD is accepting UNECE Certificates.

Myanmar At the present moment, as Myanmar is a member of ASEAN, we accept or recognize the certificates issued by ASEAN member countries. Likewise, only when Myanmar becomes UN/ECE Member countries, we would consider to accept UN/ ECE certificates.

Philippines ---

Singapore Yes or No: - Already accept UNECE certificates.

- 16 -

Page 168: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

Thailand

Yes or No: No Even though Thailand has already become a Contracting Part to the 1958 Agreement with a declaration not to be bound by any Regulation attached to the Agreement until further notification; we have no plan to adopt any Regulation right away after accession. A plan to accept UN/ECE certificates needs to be internally discussed with all related agencies especially local manufacturers. By the way, test report from technical services under 1958 Agreement, which is one of several options, would be accepted under new auspices of whole vehicle or vehicle systems/part type approval systems.

Vietnam Vietnam has still accepted UN/ECE certificates.

Chinese Taipei

Since Taiwan is not the contracting country of the 1958 agreement and mutual recognition should be based on mutual benefits, it is considered not suitable for us to accept the EU certificate unilaterally. But the authority MOTC welcomes talk about the subject of mutual recognition or mutual acceptance of type approval certificate if other country considers necessary.

3-4: Would your country have a government/industry working group for discussion of UN/ECE regulations and new certification systems? If so, please explain the participating organizations and outline of decision-making process. China ---

Hong Kong Government / Industry Working group: No

India Interaction of government and the automotive industry is explained in Para 2-2, 2-4 and 3-1 above.

Indonesia Government / Industry Working group: Yes MoT, MoI, MoEnergy, MoEnvironment, Ministry of Trade, National Standard Board, Parts and Automotive Association, others

Japan Government / Industry Working group: Yes Japan established JASIC in 1987 to make cooperation between government and industry for promoting harmonization.

Korea

Government / Industry Working group: Yes A task force team composed of MOCT, KATRI and manufacturers was organized in 2003 to promote international standards harmonization (WP29) (Plenary meeting and six expert groups corresponding to WP29) ㅇ Organization

- Government : Motor Vehicles Team in the MOCT - Manufacturer : KAMA, automotive and component manufacturer - Testing institute for compliance : KATRI

ㅇ Activities : Research and consultation with regard to international harmonization of motor vehicle safety (WP29 and GR meetings, selecting items for harmonization, research on items for harmonization)

ㅇ Decision-making process : Make decisions through consultation with stakeholder such as manufacture - Discussion regarding technical parts led by KATRI - Plenary meeting led by MOCT - feedback for technical parts – Final decision

Laos No yet at this moment.

Malaysia Government / Industry Working group: Yes The committee members would comprise of relevant Government Ministries/Agencies and industry representatives.

Myanmar

We have already formed "Myanmar Industrial Development Committee" headed by Minister of the Ministry of Industry (1) and "Myanmar Industrial Development Working Committee" headed by Minister of the Ministry of Industry (2). There are nine sub-committees and, two of them are: -Regional Industrial Coordination -Standardization & Quality Improvement. Outline of the decision making process can be described as: Sub-committee ->Working Committee ->Committee ->FAPC ->Cabinet

Philippines ---

Singapore

Government / Industry Working group: No However, we hold regular dialogue sessions with the Motor Traders Association of Singapore (MTA) and would seek their views and discuss on matters concerning the introduction of new regulations and requirements, including the adoption of UNECE Regulations.

Thailand

Government / Industry Working group: Yes To discuss UN/ECE Regulations and improve vehicle certification systems, 2 working groups were officially formed up under the lead of Department of Land Transport (DLT). A working group on technical regulations consists of representatives from DLT, Thai Industrial Standards Institute, Pollution Control Department, Thai Automotive Institute, Thai Society of Automotive Engineering, and vehicle/parts manufacturers. A meeting of the working group has been held regularly 2-3 times a year since 2001 to discuss the plan of studying and improving national regulations. In order to work more effectively, sub working-groups were formed corresponding to GR groups of WP29. Each sub working-group has a meeting every 2-4 weeks to study the UN/ECE Regulation with a goal to draft a national regulation based on the studied UN/ECE Regulation. The draft national regulations done by the sub working-groups will then be circulated to related agencies especially to the vehicle/parts manufacturers in concern to receive final comments prior to submitting the final drafts to DLT Legal division for a legal process. A working group on improving vehicle certification systems has a similar structure to the former working group but the work itself is being carried out in a different way. Rather forming sub working-groups, an informal meeting is held just before a regular working group meeting (2-3 times a year) to really have a detailed discussion and specific comments from the vehicle/parts manufacturers particularly on the draft of type approval scheme. Then, an outcome/progress from the informal meeting and other related subjects is reported to the Working group meeting to have approval and comments.

Vietnam Under development of setting up.

Chinese Taipei

For vehicle safety type approval, there is no formal working group for discussion of UN/ECE regulations and certification systems among government and industry. However, when the MOTC plans to introduce new regulation or revise current regulation, it will notify the related industry and ARTC for the multi-stage discussions. The regulation draft will be corrected according to the discussion conclusions and then proposed to the minister for the publication

Question 4: Request for G/I Meeting in the future 4-1: Your country is requested to mention your opinion regarding the theme and expectation for the oncoming 5th Series.

China

Since many Asian countries have not acceded to 1958 Agreement, some efforts may be paid to establishing bilateral or multilateral agreement among Asian economies on recognition of testing results presented by designated test facilities, which are approved by all interest parties.

Hong Kong No.

India

We feel that the forth coming G/I meeting could discuss following topics: -Transport Management Systems -I & M and phasing out of old vehicles -ULEV/ non-conventional energy -Passive Safety -Country-wise Implementation of GTRs notified under 1998 agreement -Rationalization of regional/ country-specific requirements

Indonesia Please also consider to discuss also about 1997 and 1998 agreement, not only 1958 Agreement.

Japan Nothing Particular

Korea ---

Laos Understanding of foundation building for international vehicle certification/mutual recognition system.

Malaysia

Malaysia would like to propose for roadmap on harmonization of vehicle type approval in Asian counties by 2015. Comprehensive discussion between Governments and industry should be held in order to achieve the proposed deadline in 2015.

Myanmar We would participate and cooperate on the coming 5th Series G/I Meeting.

Philippines The series of G/I meetings should support the Asian countries in WP 29 participation by providing some guidance in establishing ECE Regulations and mutual recognition certifications.

Singapore ---

Thailand

It is acceptable to educate vehicle type approval system into the same direction. Anyway It should bear in mind that each country may have different background, different legal structure or even various relevant agencies. In addition, it is an internal legal process which need more time from more legal agencies to fulfill.

Vietnam Understanding of foundation building for an international vehicle certification/mutual recognition system among major Asian countries is still very neccessary to get high consensus of the things that to be carried out for the system.

Chinese Taipei Chinese Taipei considers the proposed theme of 5th series meeting is appropriate and would be helpful for harmonization of vehicle regulations and MRA among Asian countries.

WP29 PARTICIPATION AND THE 1958 / 1998 AGREEMENT

WP 29 Participation

The Philippines attended the World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations as observer on June 20-23, 2006 and June 25 – 29, 2007

Lack of understanding on the whole concept of WP29 and its Agreements hinders participation to the WP29

The problem can be resolved by continuous education for both motor vehicle industry and government through attendance to the experts meetings and other activities where WP29 and its Agreements are being discussed.

Page 240: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

ACCESSION TO THE 1958 / 1998 AGREEMENTSIn the Philippine Roadmap on Harmonization of MV Regulations andStandards, the Philippine intends to accede to the 1958 Agreement in 2008 and in the 1998 Agreement in 2010. Accession however wouldentail legal process involving legislation and ratification of the Senate which might take sometimeThere are various considerations for the Philippine Accession to the 1958 / 1998 Agreements such as:- government’s ability and expertise;- local industries’ capability to comply with UNECE regulations: - necessity to implement various regulations; and- some ECE regulations may have conflict with existing PNS,

DAO, etcThere is a need to harmonize existing rules and regulations of various government agencies involved in the development and regulations of motor vehiclesExecutive Order No 628 creating a committee on the Harmonization of Vehicle Standards and Regulations was issued to address the issues

PROGRESS OF DOMESTIC ACTIVITY FOR STANDARDS & REGULATIONS HARMONIZATION

Planning workshops on motor vehicle standards and regulations harmonization were conducted participated by various government agencies, particularly: DOTC-LTO, DTI-BPS, DOE, DENR-EMB and TMGThe Roadmap on Harmonization of Vehicle Standards and Regulations was draftedExecutive Order No 628 creating a Committee on Harmonization of Vehicle Standards and Regulations was approved by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. The Committee will evaluate existing situation in the Philippines and come up with reasonable workable plans and programs to eventually make the Philippines ready for its participation to the WP29 and accession to its AgreementThe TWG of the Committee is currently drafting the Implementing Rules and Regulation of EO 628.

CREATION OF SUB-COMMITTEES UNDER EO 628 which created the Committee on Harmonization of Motor Vehicle Standards and Regulations

Sub-committee on standards developmentSub-committee on certification and regulationsSub-committee on WP29 participationSub-committee on Road Vehicle Act

The progress of the domestic activities for regulations harmonization is hampered by lack of expertise, equipment and infrastructure to conduct testing and certification. Lack of proper coordination among government agencies and private sector likewise contribute to the implementation delays

The creation of various sub-committees composed of representatives from the government and private sectors involved in motor vehicle standards and regulations may help resolve the issues.

Page 245: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

HOLDING OF ASIA EXPERTS MEETING

The series of G/I meetings should support the Asian countries in the WP29 participation by providing some guidelines in establishing ECE regulations and mutual recognition certificationHolding of experts meeting should be funded by bilateral cooperationAn expert meeting on the Intent of UN/ECE Regulation and Mutual Recognition of Certification would be of helpExperts meeting on Noise Standards and RegulationsThe Committee on the Harmonization of Motor Vehicle Standards and Regulations would like to propose for the passing of the Noise Control Act, hence the need for some information on the process and technology.

Comments for Panel Discussion(2)

3-3 Plan to Accept UN/ECE Certificates:Since Taiwan is not the contracting country of the 1958 agreement and mutual recognition should be based on mutual benefits, it is considered not suitable for us to accept the EU certificate unilaterally. But the authority MOTC welcomes talk about the subject of mutual recognition or mutual acceptance of type approval certificate if other country considers necessary.

3-4 Decision-Making Process:For vehicle safety type approval, there is no formal working group for discussion of UN/ECE regulations and certification systems amonggovernment and industry. However, when the MOTC plans to introduce new regulation or revise current regulation, it will notify the related industry and ARTC for the multi-stage discussions. The regulation draft will be corrected according to the discussion conclusions and then proposed to the minister for the publication.

• Philippines Director Ildefonso T. Patdu, Jr., Project Development Service, Department of Transportation and Communications presented from the perspective of the country planning to accede in the WP29. The time lines for the accession to the WP29 of the Philippines are as follows: Accession to 1958 Agreement by 2008; and Accession to 1997 and 1998 Agreements by 2010. On the Vehicle Type Approval as component of accession to WP29, the legal frameworks are the RA 4136 which is the Land Transportation and Traffic Code of the Philippines, the MVUC Law which provides that all manufacturers and assemblers of motor vehicle shall not later than 3 months prior to the introduction of any new model of motor vehicle in the market, submit the specifications of such new model to Land Transportation Office. Another very important law relating to the VTA is the RA 8749, Clean Air Act, which provides legal framework or legal basis for the establishment of the VTAS of the country under the mandate of the DOTC. With regards to the existing institutional framework on the technical regulations and enforcement of motor vehicle there are various inter-governmental organizations working on the technical regulations of the country, one is the DOTC specifically the LTO, Department of Trade and Industry, Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Department of Energy and the Philippine National Police. Director Patdu presented the functional delineation among governmental organizations in relation to motor vehicle certification, wherein LTO provides the regulations for the whole vehicle unit and conduct inspection as to the roadworthiness; DTI/BPS promulgates standards on MV parts and aligned about 41 ECE regulations into PNS; DENR issues certificate of conformity to new vehicle prior to registration on emission standard only; DOTC/LTO issues the certificate of compliance to emission standards on second-hand vehicle. On the issues and concerns, Director Patdu presented them in relation to BPA: compartmentalize agency regulation in terms of vehicle classification borne out on the stabilizing of fees and charges; limited expertise in the government sector; lack of comprehensive

Page 283: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

regulations in terms of VTA; limited support infrastructure particularly testing facilities; limited coordination on decision making process; and control and reduction of negative impact of harmonization costing the harmonization cost. The way forward to achieve the objectives of harmonization are: for the government to take an integrated approach towards harmonization of vehicle standards and regulations; build capacities at national and local level; partnership with industry players; collaborate effectively with international and regional partners and institutions; effective allocation and utilization of the Road User Tax under the Special Vehicle Pollution Control Fund towards the improvement in air quality thru mitigation and abatement of pollution from mobile sources; institutional strengthening, which all laws required in the establishment of VTAS are in place; formulate roadmap on harmonization of vehicle standards and regulations (drafting of National Strategic Master Plan for Automotive sector to be completed by 2008); and to enhance and to have comprehensive development program there should be a legislative reforms (Road Vehicle Act) as part of the legislative requirements. He made mention of the programs and projects aligned under the SVPCF which is on automatic appropriation per year: the accession to WP29; the vehicle standard development under the BPS; the emission factor development to determine the level of pollution arising from the mobile sources; the vehicle classification system; the VTAS; and the National MV inspection and maintenance programs which are all required in the Clean Air Act.

• Malaysia Mr. Terima Kasih, Road Transport Department made a presentation on the Vehicle Type Approval System in Malaysia, wherein TA control the construction of motor vehicle and update technical data. All vehicles prior to registration shall have to pass through the VTAS inspection and road test by RTD. The purpose of VTAS is to ensure compliance of the legal requirements by local manufacturer/assembler, new and imported used vehicles. The legal framework has to implemented like the Road Transport Act 1987 – Section 66 (1) wherein the Minister prescribe the type approval of any motor vehicle; construction and Use Rules 1959; and other regulations made under the Act. He also made mention of the VTA Process Chart and VTA Application Format. And finally, he presented the constraints encountered in the establishment of VTA and its countermeasures. In conclusion he explained the functions being served by the Type Approval System in Malaysia.

• Thailand A representative from Thailand presented the establishment of vehicle verification system wherein the Ministerial Regulation No. 22 was amended to add vehicle parts type approval system under the Motor Vehicle Act. The draft WVTA for MVA amended by the LTA and MVA merging is under the consideration of the Council before sending to the Parliament. Some UNECE regulations have already been studied and drafted and the amendment of MR22, which was approved by the Cabinet in January 2007, and after for the consideration of the Council of State was likewise discussed. She enumerated the main problems encountered in the establishment of

Page 284: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

vehicle verification system, which were attributed to inflexibility of legal process insufficient expertise, manpower constraints, and test facilities.

• Japan Mr. Kenji Maruyama of JASIC International Cooperation Committee presented the outline of the 4th Series Outputs in which the most significant change the initiated study on a vehicle type approval concept utilizing the UNECE regulations and certificates, wherein many discussions related to the 4 wheeled vehicle type approval arises. He presented the summary on the 11th G/I Meeting where many countries planned to adopt the ECE regulations. Mr. Maruyama cited the 10th G/I meeting wherein they had a presentation from Hong Kong in the person of M. Kelvin Yuen, who made very good suggestions of what should be the framework in the establishment of TAS. The purpose of his presentation was how to incorporate the UNECE regulations into local regulation for safety. His presentation was focused only on the issue of safety in which the Hong Kong Transport Department is responsible for safety regulations, certification and inspection. Mr. Maruyama presented the change and graph of trends on casualties and showed examples on the vehicle performance, passengers and drivers in Hong Kong. With the various accidents, Hong Kong TD decided to modify the existing law and adopt UNECE regulations as technical requirements. The objective of Hong TD was to manage the huge task with the limited resources wherein the very common concern among the Asian countries was the manpower constraints. Another objective is to update the regulations, introduce more safety standards and introduce the vehicle standard system to which it takes time for one regulation to be approved. Hong Kong has 50 regulations to be amended every year. With regards to the regulations in progress 2 they need to recognize the ECE regulations by aligning the technical provisions with ECE regulations and adopting ECE regulations unilaterally by putting them under the equivalent standard list. Mr. Maruyama briefly mentioned the VTAS wherein registration of vehicle manufacturers can make application to the TAS; the approval forms the concept of the approval document is derived from EC WVTA system; and the ECE regulations and EC approval format, which is very important to submit to the Hong Kong Government. Mr. Maruyama pointed out that after working on the TAS and establishing the certification, the countries should get together to talk on the harmonization certificate and come out with a common format framework then set up the very similar systematic certification system. The reason why JASIC has been talking of this system is to set a level certification system of vehicle, but unfortunately in the ECE there is only the parts and no VTA process. Japan made a proposal by the end of 2009 and at the same time there might be some proposal from Asian countries to establish a very good framework to which Japan may be a party. And finally, with regards to key points 2, definitions and responsibilities of the Vehicle Type Approval Applicant is very important in the definition of vehicle category in Japan which should be harmonized first so it would be much easier.

• Discussion of keywords The panel finalized the following keywords from the 1st day discussion as follows: o Insufficient expertise / Lack of experiences o Language / Mis-interpretation of requirements o Testing facilities o Qualification of testing laboratory / applicant o Inflexibility of legal process o Shortage of trained manpower o Limited budget o Cabinet policy of each country o Closer cooperation between ACCSQ-APWG and the JASIC G/I meeting

Additional opinion on the issues

- Trend mental instead of manpower - Regulatory regime to look into the regulatory framework which redound

to revisiting the Motor Vehicle Act of each country - Address the institutional infrastructure - Technical infrastructure need in administering the scheme - Strengthen the post market surveillance system - Common institutional framework for harmonization - Administrative approach to the accession/adoption of the agreements

Expert meeting has been focused on more kind of a lecture and more understanding of ECE regulation or accession to the agreements. Maybe in the future on this kind of subject, the participants can best establish a common baseline or system on the vehicle type approval in the region. If this could be the kind of Expert Meeting maybe the participants can continue to exchange knowledge or opinion on special conditions and share the full understanding and trust each other maybe they can be able to establish the best road system.

- Glossary of items - Japan to develop individual guidelines for each country to see to it that

each country can accede on a proper manner looking at each country’s policy rules and regulations and its intricacies as a country. We suggest that JASIC put in set of recommendations specific for each country and follow it through all the way if it can be translated into local language.

5. 13tht JASIC G/I meeting

• GTR on Heavy Duty Off-Cycle Emissions Vehicles

- GTR would address vehicle emission which are not covered under traditional laboratory test cycles.

- An important step to address emission control under a wide range of operating conditions of vehicle.

- The basis will be harmonized procedures for ensuring that emission control technologies are actually effective under normal operating conditions because they test a broad range of normal driving conditions that are otherwise not subject to traditional emissions testing.

- Work will continue on this GTR in Informal Group/GRPE.

ASEP (Additional Sound Emission Provisions)

To prepare a draft proposal for ASEP (for M1 and N1 vehicles only) to be included in the already-issued Supl.5 to 02 Series of Regulation No. 51, GRB established an informal group for ASEP in September 2005.

the preventive requirements intended to also cover driving conditions of the vehicle in real traffic, which can be environmentally relevant concerning their sound emission and which differs from those during type approval.

The proposal of ASEP for R51 will be submitted to GRB within 2008. The idea is also taken into the discussion to amend R41 for motorcycles.

Page 371: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

New Test Methods for ECE R41The new test method is based on the ISO362 to

reflect the real-world driving, following the work already done for R51

The main test method is almost fixed, and ASEP is under discussion

Data collection analysis is processing for the purpose of discussion of limit values

The informal group started its work in November 2004.The draft amendment of R41 including the ASEP is expected to be submitted to GRB session in 2008.

Seminar-workshop on Motor Vehicle Type Approval

The 7th Asia Experts meeting on the Seminar-workshop on motor vehicle type approval was conducted by JASIC and National Traffic Safety and Environment Laboratory (NTSEL) was held at the Holiday Inn Galleria Manila last February 15-16, 2007Attended by participants from the DOTC, LTO, other government agencies such as: DTI, DENR, DOE, PNP-TMG, UPNCTS and participants from the motor vehicle industry

Page 376: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

Background Information

RA 4136 provides the following:1. For uniformity of registration fees and classification, all manufacturers and/or assemblers of motor vehicles, prior to introduction of a new model of motor vehicle shall submit the specifications of the said model to LTO which shall determine under what schedule of registration fees the said model should fall

2. If on inspection, any motor vehicle is found to be unsightly, unsafe, overloaded, improperly marked or equipped, or otherwise unfit to be operated or capable of causing damage to the highways, or not conforming to minimum standards and specifications, the LTO may refuse the registration of the motor vehicle

Page 377: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

Background info…

The MVUC Law provides that all manufacturers and / or assemblers of motor vehicles shall, not later than 3 months prior to the introduction of any new model of motor vehicle in the market, submit the specifications of such new model to LTO which shall recommend for approval by the Secretary, proper classification of the new model and the rate of the MVUC under which the new model shall fall

The Philippines intends to participate in the WP29 and accede to the 1958 and 1998 Agreements

The realization of mutual recognition of approvals requires adoption of the ECE regulations, hence the need for the establishment of theVehicle Type Approval System whereby the government assures thatevery motor vehicle has complied with the technical regulations concerning safety, environment, etc, before the motor vehicles are registered.

Type Approval System

Being done on new motor vehicles that will be introduced to the marketIncluded in the rights and duties of the countries acceding to the 1958 AgreementNecessary in granting approval markings, advising component authorities on non-conformityImportant in taking measures on non-conformity to the approved type, acceptance of those approved by other countries and confirmation of conformity of production (COP) in granting type approvalEstablishment of type approval system is one of the important steps in the realization of mutual recognition of approvals which is in line with the objective of WP29 of initiating and pursuingactions aimed at the worldwide harmonization or development of technical regulations for vehicles

Page 380: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

Implementation Plan

Conduct a study to implement the type approval system in the Philippines- how type approval is being done- analyze, evaluate and determine what type approval system

can be better implemented in the Philippines by benchmarkingin other countries with established successful type approval system

Preparation for the implementation- necessary resources: funding, technical expertise, infrastructure, equipment, etc (depending on the kind of system to be implemented)

Implement by 2010 (earliest)- project management office to monitor implementation, etc

Introduction to Type Approval and Conformity of Production

Each country has its own scheme of issue of the approvalGenerally these fall into two classes:

issued by the vehicle manufacturer himself {generally known as Self Certification}

orApproval issued by a Government Agency {generally known as Type Approval (TA)}

Type approval is followed by most of countries including India.

Page 476: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

11

Genesis of Type Approval in India

After the enactment of Motor Vehicles Act 1988 (MVA) and Central Motor Vehicle Rules 1989 (CMVR):Technical regulations applicable throughout IndiaA system of the prototype approval by authorised test agencies was included as Rule No. 126 in Central Motor vehicles Rules 1989.This certification system became mandatory from 1.4.1991 Since then, the subjects covered by the CMVR have increased considerably and type approval procedure has been further streamlined.

Page 477: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

12

Rule No. 126

The requirements of Rule 126 areEvery manufacturer of motor vehicles other than trailers and semi-trailers shall submit the prototype of the vehicle to be manufactured by him for test by a test agency for granting a certificate by that agency as to the compliance of provisions ofthe Act and these Rules.Provided that the procedure of type approval and certification of motor vehicles for compliance to these rules shall be in accordance with the AIS:017-2000, (Procedure for Type Approval and Certification of Vehicles for Compliance to Central Motor Vehicles Rules) as amended from time to time.

Conformity of Production (COP)

The manufacturer ensures that:every vehicle produced are in conformance with the details of specification based on which TA is granted. Conforms to provisions.

Manufacturer confirms this in the form of a certificate, as per Form 22 of CMVR.A notified provision for COP by a test agency is now applicable only for emission.A procedure for the rest of provisions (Safety Critical items) is under preparation.

Page 481: 12th JASIC Asia Government&Indusrty Meeting Final

16

COP for emissionThe test agency randomly selects a vehicle at specified periodicity from the factory.Running in, and servicing prescribed in the manual are carried out on this vehicle under the supervision of the test agency.Emission tests (mass emission and tail pipe emission) are carried out by the test agency.COP provisions provide for extended trials and recall in the case of failure

November 28, 2007 Joint Statement

12th JASIC Asia Government/Industry Meeting 14 Country/Region Agreement

A. The 12th meeting under the 4th series of G/I Meeting was successfully held in Manila from November

27-29, 2007 under the theme “Accession to the 1958/1998 Agreement and increased Asian presence in WP29”, and based on the output of the Government/Industry Meeting 3rd series, the participants focused on the following activities.

1. Accession to the 1958/1998 Agreements by Asian countries 2. Increasing the number of countries participating in WP.29 and communicating the

enactment of agreements and rules that reflect the current status of Asia 3. Strengthening ties among Asian countries/territories to ensure smooth transition to the new

Government-Industry Meetings

On Item 1, the following countries acceded to the 1958Agreement: South Korea (December 2004), Malaysia (April 2006), and Thailand (May 2006) accede the 1958 Agreement. In addition, the following countries expressed their intention to accede: the Philippines, Indonesia, and Vietnam. India is also actively examining the possibility of acceding to the 1958 Agreement. All the participating government and industry representatives constructively discussed during this series, the directions the member countries should take. All countries have recognized the importance of building robust automobile type approval systems. In this regard, Japan proposed the mutual recognition of whole vehicle certification to the various countries. The member countries have agreed to keep in close contact and exchange information to work toward mutual recognition of whole vehicle certification.

On Item 2, Vietnam, Indonesia, and the Philippines participated as observer in WP29 for the first time. China, South Korea, India, Thailand, and Japan have continued to participate in WP29 and contribute to its activities. Singapore expressed that it plans to consider participation in WP29 as an observer in year 2008/2009. China, South Korea, India, and Japan are also actively participating in GRs. It is hoped that the enthusiasm holds and leads to a unified voice of Asia in WP29.

On Item 3, Future Government/Industry Meetings will be used as venues for exchanging WP29 related information between government and industry, and for establishing vehicle regulations and vehicle type approval systems in Asian countries, so expert meetings will be held under the auspices of the Government/Industry Meetings to improve understanding of the 1958 Agreement and the ECE Regulations by the various countries as well as to strengthen the cooperation among Asian countries. Participating members recognized the importance of holding these expert meetings regularly and of fostering an environment for smooth transition of Government/Industry Meetings towards its future role.

B. While progress had been made generally during this 4th series, the participants also recognized that nothing

much had been made in the mutual recognition of approvals based on the 1958 Agreement. One reason for this is the yet-to-be established automobile type approval system in the different countries. Thus, the countries agreed to seriously address the issue during the coming 5th series Government/Industry Meetings. Participating members agreed on the following theme for the 5th series. “Strengthening of the Mutual Recognition of a Whole Vehicle Certification infrastructure under the 1958 Agreement” ・ Promote knowledge on the international whole vehicle certification system infrastructure by Asian

countries ・ Develop the vehicle type approval systems in each Asian country ・ Promote application of the ECE regulations necessary for mutual recognition of whole vehicle

certification system. ・ Expand the number of Contracting Parties on the 1958 Agreement among the Asian countries ・ Continue Government/Industry Meetings and Expert Meetings in accordance with expectations for

internationalization of vehicle type approval.

C. It was decided to hold the next Government/Industry Meeting as follows: Schedule: 26-28 November, 2008 Location: Thailand Organized by: Department of Land Transport (DLT),

And JASIC

Vietnam expects to co-organize the Government/Industry Meeting in 2009.

Appendix Results of Government/Industry Meetings to Date

1. Government/Industry Meetings 1st Series (1st to 3rd Government/Industry Meetings) a. The need for international harmonization of automobile technical standards and mutual recognition

system was confirmed. b. It was confirmed that the optimum forum for promoting automobile safety and environmental

protection and for smooth international distribution is the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations (UN/ECE/WP29) and that membership in the 1958 and 1998 Agreements is important.

c. Each country will set the policies and action plans that it should pursue and then based on these joint statement will be issued which in turn shall be the basis for each country’s formation and accomplishment of short-term, medium-term, and long-term targets.

2. Government/Industry Meetings 2nd Series (4th to 6th Government/Industry Meetings)

a. The 2nd series activities will focus on the short-term targets from the Government/Industry Meetings 1st Series under the theme of “Expanding and promoting observer participation in WP29.”

b. As the first step toward international harmonization of automobile technical standards and mutual recognition of certification, the activities of WP29 and its groups (UN/ECE/WP29/GRs) will be understood and the factors hindering participating in WP29/GRs will be analyzed.

c. Hindrance factors identified were the cost of participation, insufficient technological knowledge, and language problem. To resolve these obstacles, government, industry, and academe will work together to resolve the technological issues and get the upper management layers of organizations to recognize the importance of automobile standard harmonization activities to make it easier to obtain budget. The language problem can be resolved by using the official languages of WP29, so none of these issues are essential problems.

d. Each country will craft an action plan for the course that it should take. A joint statement will be issued, and based on this each country will set short-term, medium-term, and long-term targets it should achieve.

3. Government/Industry Meetings 3rd Series (7th to 9th Government/Industry Meetings)

a. Based on the results of the Government/Industry Meetings 2nd Series, 3rd series activities will be pursued under the theme “Achieving participation in WP29/GR activities and expanding use of ECE regulations.”

b. As regards to WP29/GR, Malaysia and India recently participated in, while Vietnam and the Philippines seriously studied participating as observers. The number of countries participating in WP29 also increased the understanding of the importance of WP29 activities and confirmed the common recognition that membership in the 1958 Agreement and mutual recognition under the Agreement is headed in the direction of standards harmonization in Asia.

c. On the matter of expanding use of ECE regulations, many countries created action plans based on their needs, and it was clear that much work on standards harmonization activities using ECE regulations will be done going forward along with membership in the 1958 Agreement.

d. In regards to new activities for future Government/Industry Meetings, the results from trial holding of expert meetings in accordance with the needs of the countries, an expert meeting on lights was held in Thailand and served as basis for the structure of future Government/Industry Meetings. Further, on Indonesia’s first year of membership in the 1958 Agreement in 2005, it was announced in 2005 that Thailand would hold a meeting regarding brake standards. Many countries are expected to participate in this expert meeting.

* There are many presentation missed (not attached) in the meeting material especially the presentation from Philippines. It would be really beneficial if the organizer could gather all presentation ready a real of using. (Thailand)

Advantage: Cost lower, for filing system more easy, easy to carry, easy for make report/sharing info in the company/government (Indonesia)

* Some panel discussion if more preferable. (Vietnam) * Some materials missing from folder/file including speeches. Presentation sequence not the

same as material sequence. Too much cutting of time for Q&A. Should allow more questions. (Malaysia)

discussion in GTR up to WP29 forum vote. (Indonesia) * With the president interest on the Philippines involvement into this undertaking and the

Need of single institutional structure in the development of regulation. (Philippines)
