 In such a case, the Type Approval Authority shall issue the revised pages of the information folder as necessary, marking each revised page to show clearly the nature of the modification and the date of re-issue. A consolidated updated version of the information folder, accompanied by a detailed description of the modification, shall be deemed to meet this requirement.

 The modification shall be designated an "extension" if, in addition to the change of the particulars recorded in the information folder,

                  (c) Approval to a later series of amendments is requested after its entry into force.
7.2. Confirmation or refusal of approval, specifying the alterations shall be communicated by the procedure specified in paragraph 4.3. above to the Parties to the Agreement which apply this Regulation. In addition, the index to the information package, attached to the communication document, shall be amended accordingly to show the date of the most recent revision or extension.
8. Conformity of production
8.1. Vehicle (separate technical unit) approved under this Regulation shall be so manufactured as to conform to the type approved by meeting the requirements set forth in paragraphs 5. and 6. above.
8.2. In order to verify that the requirements of paragraph 8.1. above are met, suitable controls of the production shall be carried out.
