AGENCY:

Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION:

Final rule; technical amendment.

SUMMARY:

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is updating an authority citation for the Code of Federal Regulations. This action is technical in nature and is intended to provide accuracy of the Agency's regulations.

DATES:

This rule is effective July 20, 2015.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Mary E. Kennelly, Office of Regulatory Affairs, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 32, Rm. 4338, Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002, 240-402-9577, [e-mail].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In a previous rulemaking, the authority citation for 21 CFR part 16 was inadvertently altered to omit 28 U.S.C. 2112 and changed 21 U.S.C. 467f to 21 U.S.C. 467F. FDA is reversing those changes such that 28 U.S.C. 2112 and 21 U.S.C. 467f are included in the list of authority citations for 21 CFR part 16.

List of Subjects in 21 CFR Part16

• Administrative practice and procedure

Therefore, under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and under authority delegated to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs, 21 CFR part 16 is amended as follows:
