The European Community declares that it is not bound by article 10 of the revised
Agreement and that articles 2, 4 and 5 thereof will in all cases be implemented by
its individual Member States. The European Community declares that UN/ECE Regulation
22 shall not apply to the United Kingdom.
1. At the date of its accession to the Revised Agreement with regard to wheeled vehicles,
equipment and parts, the European Community intends to restrict its accession to the
recognition and approvals of the UN/ECE regulations [as listed], with the series of
amendments as indicated, as they are in force at the date of accession.
Regulations Nos. 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21,

The technical requirements of the UN/ECE regulations [as listed] shall become alternatives
to the technical annexes to the relevant separate EC Directives where the latter possess
the same scope and where for the regulations separate EC Directives do exist.
However, the additional directive provisions, such as those concerning fitting requirements
or the approval procedure, remain in force.
Where it is clear that UN/ECE regulations differ from the relevant directives, the
Community may decide to extricate itself from its reciprocal-recognition obligation
in this area by withdrawing from the UN/ECE regulation(s) concerned, in line with
article 1 (6) of the Revised Agreement.
2. The listed UN/ECE regulations, for which at the date of accession no corresponding
separate EC Directives exist, shall become alternatives in accordance with paragraph
1 at the moment where these separate EC Directives become applicable.
3. UN/ECE Regulation 22 shall, not in accordance with the rules of the Treaty, apply
to the United Kingdom before 1 July 2000 or, if earlier, until such time as the Community
accedes to an amended UN/ECE regulation on protective helmets and visors which provides
for the same or higher standards for such helmets and visors as are applicable in
the United Kingdom on the 27 November 1997.

The accession of the EC has the effect that the [...] regulations adhered to are not
(in cases where a Member State already applied a regulation: no longer) applied by
Member States by virtue of their status as Contracting Parties to the Agreement but
exclusively in their capacity as Member States of the Contracting Party European Community.
Thus, the 14 Member States already Contracting Parties themselves, now apply all [these]
regulations by virtue of the EC's accession.
[...] By the EC's accession, Ireland has not become a Contracting Party. Only the
EC has become a Contracting Party. Ireland being a Member State of this Contracting
Party applies the [...] regulations [adhered to by the EC] by virtue of the EC's accession.
It will be recalled that, as at 29 July 1998, States Members of the EC are: Austria,
Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, The
Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom.

Recognition of Approval for Motor Vehicle Equipment and Parts, done at Geneva on 20

is not in conformity with the Charter of the United Nations and the documents adopted
by the United Nations concerning the granting of independence to colonial countries
and peoples, including the Declaration on Principles of International Law concerning
Friendly Relations and Co-operation among States in accordance with the Charter of
the United Nations, unanimously adopted in 1970 by the General Assembly in its resolution

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics does not consider itself bound by the provisions
of article 10 of the Agreement concerning the adoption of uniform conditions of approval
and reciprocal recognition of approval for motor vehicle equipment and parts, of 20
March 1958, and state that, in order for any dispute between Contracting Parties concerning
the interpretation or application of the Agreement to be submitted to arbitration,
the consent of all the countries involved in the dispute shall be required in each
individual case and that only persons appointed by the parties in dispute with their
common consent may act as arbitrators.
The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics considers it necessary to state that the provisions
of article 9 of the Agreement concerning the adoption of uniform conditions of approval
and reciprocal recognition of approval for motor vehicle equipment and parts, of 20
March 1958, which envisage the possibility of the Contracting Parties extending it
to territories for the international relations of which they are responsible, are
outmoded and at variance with the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial
Countries and Peoples adopted by the United Nations General Assembly (resolution 1514
