The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps she has taken to establish an independent audit mechanism for ISO/SAE 21434 and UN R155/156 compliance.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
Approval certificates for UN Regulations 155 and 156 can be issued by an applicable national approval authority, which is the Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA) in the UK, and are mutually recognised internationally. Any country’s approval authority must have its methods and criteria used for assessment of compliance to the regulations scrutinised by other approval authorities before it can issue any approvals.
ISO/SAE 21434 is not part of the legislative requirement but provides useful guidance for compliance with R.155 and R156.
