[Dec-advocacy] Part C Regulations Withdrawn

[Diana J. LaRocco]

DEC Part C Regulations Update
January 21, 2009
 
According to the Associated Press, one of the first actions of President
Barack Obama yesterday after he was sworn in was to order federal agencies
to halt all pending regulations until his administration can review them.
 
Meanwhile, according to the Reginfo.gov website, the Part C Regulations were
³withdrawn² January 16, 2009. (See link to this announcement below- you can

(Select Department of Education in the second drop down box on this page and
then submit).
 
It is not clear what this means about the publication of final Part C
regulations. What is clear is that any decision about the regulations will
be made through the leadership of the new U.S. Department of Education
Secretary Arne Duncan, who was confirmed by the Senate yesterday by a voice
vote. 
 
DEC will keep you posted on what we learn about the plans for the Part C
regulations.
