Proposed Regulations
- Laws tell you what to do and regulations (also called "rules") tell you how to do it.
- For example, a law might say that packaged foods must describe their contents on the packaging. Its companion regulation would specify exactly which ingredients must be listed, in what order, the size of the label and so on.
- By law, regulations are published in two steps.
- The first step is to publish proposed rules and then allow for public comment in the Federal Register. A regulation may go through one or many drafts before it's final. Once it is final, it's published in the Federal Register once more before being codified.
- Next, a regulation is codified, or arranged by subject, and published in the Code of Federal Regulations. Once codified, it remains in force until either its statutory authority changes and it's repeals or the agency decides to modify it.
- For more information on both publications (despite the title) see the Federal register: What it is and How to use it.
