    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    Background
    
        The Federal Trade Commission amended its Rules of Practice to adapt 
    them to the Federal Trade Commission Act Amendments of 1994. This 
    action conformed the Commission's Rules of Practice to certain 
    statutory changes and provided guidance to the public.
    
    Need for Correction
    
        A correction to the final regulations published on July 21, 1995 is 
    needed in order to ensure that the Code of Federal Regulations 
    correctly sets forth the amended version of Section 4.7(f) of the 
    Commission's Rules of Practice.
    
    Correction of Publication
    
        Therefore, the final rule published on July 21, 1995 (60 FR 37746) 
    is corrected as follows:
        On page 37748, third column, the first sentence of paragraph (f) in 
    section 4.7 is corrected to read as follows:
    
    
    Sec. 4.7  Ex parte communications.
    
    * * * * *
        (f) The prohibitions of paragraph (b) of this section do not apply 
    to a communication occasioned by and concerning a nonadjudicative 
    function of the Commission, including such functions as the initiation, 
    conduct, or disposition of a separate investigation, the issuance of a 
    complaint, or the initiation of a rulemaking or other proceeding, 
    whether or not it involves a party already in an adjudicative 
    proceeding; preparations for judicial review of a Commission order; a 
    proceeding outside the scope of Sec. 3.2, including a matter in state 
    or federal court or before another governmental agency; a 
    nonadjudicative function of the Commission, including but not limited 
    to an obligation under Sec. 4.11 or a communication with Congress; or 
    the disposition of a consent settlement under Sec. 3.25 concerning some 
    or all of the charges involved in a complaint and executed by some or 
    all respondents.
    Donald S. Clark,
    Secretary.
