CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION

16 CFR Part 1000


Statement of Organization and Functions

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Consumer Product Safety Commission is amending its 
statement of organization and functions to reflect the transfer of the 
National Injury Information Clearinghouse from the Directorate for 
Epidemiology to the Office of the Secretary.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 7, 2003.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Stephen Lemberg, Office of the General 
Counsel, Consumer Product Safety Commission, Washington, DC 20207, 
telephone (301) 504-7630, email [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The reference to the Clearinghouse in 
section 1000.27, Directorate for Epidemiology, is being moved to 
section 1000.16, Office of the Secretary.
    Since this rule relates solely to internal agency management, 
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b) notice and other public procedures are not 
required and it is effective immediately upon publication in the 
Federal Register. Further, this action is not a rule as defined in the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, and, thus, is exempt from 
the provisions of the Act.
