Regulatory & Policy Committee

The Regulatory & Policy Committee tracks global automotive regulations, consultations and guidance—translating legal changes into practical requirements and policy positions that align with the Federation’s standards.

It acts as the interface between law and practice, collecting stakeholder feedback, drafting consultation responses, and preparing position papers that promote safety, sustainability, and fair competition across markets.

Outcomes include a living policy tracker, briefing notes, and convergence maps that show how regulations map to Federation standards and accreditation schemes.
