[Docket No. FR-4023-C-02]
RIN 2502-AG69
AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Housing--Federal Housing 
Commissioner, HUD.

ACTION: Correction to final rule.

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

SUMMARY: On March 26, 1996 (61 FR 13232), the Department published a 
final rule streamlining its regulations under the Real Estate 
Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA). The preamble of the rule explained 
that, as part of this streamlining, the Department was removing from 
codification certain appendices. Instead, the material in these 
appendices would be made available from the Department as Public 
Guidance Documents. Because of an error in the amendatory instructions, 
the directions to remove the appendices as specified in the preamble 
were omitted from the rule text. This correction publishes those 
instructions.

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 25, 1996.
