Q1What changed1 change
How a Contracting Party notifies its acceptance of a L-IWVTA (para. 13.5.)
For the notification in paragraph 13.5., the Contracting Party must now use the UNECE online sharing system. It must also indicate the level(s) of acceptance for each UN Regulation concerned. Before, the notification used the format provided in Annex 4, Part A, Section II. The next sentence no longer has the words "regarding Annex 4, Part A, Section II" after "the notification by the Contracting Party".

- WP.29, 178th session (June 2019)
Reasons
Reasons given by the proposer: IWG on IWVTA, in informal document WP.29-178-05. At its 178th session, WP.29 noted that the IWG had planned to submit proposals based on WP.29-178-05 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1147, para. 79).
WP.29 report ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1145, paragraph 73, says that the secretariat introduced the new IWVTA functionality of the "343 app". The app was expected to be rolled out before the application date of UN Regulation No. 0. This tool is deemed to serve as the unique means of notifications under paragraph 13.5. The secretariat proposed amending paragraph 13.5 to reflect that this new functionality in the 343 application "shall serve as the unique means of notification".
