FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION

[Notice 1995-24]

11 CFR Part 110


Communications Disclaimer Requirements

AGENCY: Federal Election Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; announcement of effective date.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On Oct. 5, 1995 (60 FR 52069), the Commission published the 
text of revised regulations governing disclaimers on campaign 
communications. On Nov. 29, 1995, the Commission published a correction 
to the preamble of the revised regulations. (60 FR 61199) 11 CFR Part 
110. These regulations implement a provision of the Federal Election 
Campaign Act of 1971, as amended. The Commission announces that these 
rules are effective as of December 20, 1995.

EFFECTIVE DATE: December 20, 1995.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Ms. Susan E. Propper, Assistant General Counsel, or Ms. Rita A. Reimer, 
999 E Street NW., Washington, DC 20463, (202) 219-3690 or toll free 
(800) 424-9530.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 438(d) of Title 2, United States 
Code, requires that any rule or regulation prescribed by the Commission 
to implement Title 2 of the United States Code be transmitted to the 
Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President of the Senate 
thirty legislative days prior to final promulgation. The revisions to 
11 CFR Part 110 were transmitted to Congress on Oct. 2, 1995. Thirty 
legislative days expired in the Senate on Nov. 28, 1995, and in the 
House of Representatives on Dec. 5, 1995.
    The Commission subsequently published a corrections notice to the 
preamble of these rules. The Speaker of the House of Representatives 
and the President of the Senate were notified of the correction notice 
on Nov. 27, 1995. The correction did not affect the text of the rules.
    The rules address the circumstances under which a disclaimer must 
be included on campaign communications, as well as what information 
must be included in the disclaimer. The correction notice deleted a 
potentially misleading reference to phone bank activity that had 
inadvertently been included in the Explanation and Justification to the 
revised rules.
    Announcement of Effective Date: 11 CFR 110.11, as published at 60 
FR 52069, is effective as of December 20, 1995.

    Dated: December 15, 1995.
Lee Ann Elliot,
Vice Chairman, Federal Election Commission.
