FTC Announces Regulatory Review Schedule

As part of the Federal Trade Commission’s systematic review of all current FTC rules and guides, the agency is announcing a revised regulatory review schedule.

In 2019, the Commission intends to initiate review of and solicit public comments on the Funeral Industry Practices Rule, 16 CFR 453.

To ensure that its rules and industry guides stay relevant and are not overly burdensome, the FTC reviews them on a 10-year schedule. The review schedule is published each year, with adjustments in response to public input, changes in the marketplace, and resource demands.

The Commission vote to publish the proposed Federal Register notice regarding its regulatory review program was 5-0.

The Federal Trade Commission works to promote competition, and protect and educate consumers. You can learn more about consumer topics and file a consumer complaint online or by calling 1-877-FTC-HELP (382-4357).
