SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    Temporary regulations in the Rules and Regulations section of this 
issue of the Federal Register amend the Income Tax Regulations (26 CFR 
part 1) relating to section 1502. The temporary regulations provide 
rules for disallowing loss and excluding gain for certain dispositions 
and other transactions involving stock of the common parent of a 
consolidated group.
    The text of those temporary regulations also serves as the text of 
these proposed regulations. The preamble to the temporary regulations 
explains the temporary regulations.

Special Analysis

    Is has been determined that this notice of proposed rulemaking is 
not a significant regulatory action as defined in EO 12866. Therefore, 
a regulatory assessment is not required. It also has been determined 
that section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 
chapter 5) and the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) do 
not apply to these regulations, and, therefore, a Regulatory 
Flexibility Analysis is not required. Pursuant to section 7805(f) of 
the Internal Revenue Code, this notice of proposed rulemaking will be 
submitted to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business 
Administration for comment on its impact on small business.

Comments and Public Hearing

    Before these proposed regulations are adopted as final regulations, 
consideration will be given to any written comments (a signed original 
and eight (8) copies) that are submitted timely to the IRS. All 
comments will be available for public inspection and copying.
    A public hearing has been scheduled for November 16, 1995 at 10 
a.m., in the 

[[Page 36756]]
IRS Auditorium. Because of access restrictions, visitors will not be 
admitted beyond the Internal Revenue Building lobby more than 15 
minutes before the hearing starts.
    The rules of 26 CFR 601.601(a)(3) apply to the hearing.
    Persons who wish to present oral comments at the hearing must 
submit written comments by October 26, 1995 and submit an outline of 
the topics (signed original and eight (8) copies) to be discussed by 
October 26, 1995.
    A period of 10 minutes will be allotted to each person for making 
comments.

after the deadline for receiving outlines has passed. Copies of the 
agenda will be available free of charge at the hearing.
