DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Office of Labor-Management Standards

 
Interpretation of the ``Advice'' Exemption in Section 203(c) of 
the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act

AGENCY: Office of Labor-Management Standards, Employment Standards 
Administration, Labor.

ACTION: Notice; further deferral of enforcement action.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Consistent with the memorandum of January 20, 2001, from the 
Assistant to the President and Chief of Staff, entitled ``Regulatory 
Review Plan,'' published in the Federal Register on January 24, 2001 
(66 FR 7702), this action temporarily delays for 60 days the date on 
which the Office of Labor-Management Standards will begin to enforce 
the interpretation set forth in a notice published in the Federal 
Register on January 11, 2001 (66 FR 2782). The temporary 60-day delay 
is necessary to give Department officials the opportunity for further 
review and consideration of this matter.

DATES: The interpretation of the ``advice'' exemption in Section 203(c) 
of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, as 
amended, published in the Federal Register on January 11, 2001 was to 
have commenced on February 10, 2001. It shall instead commence on April 
11, 2001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kay H. Oshel, Chief, Division of 
Interpretations and Standards, Office of Labor-Management Standards, 
Employment Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 
Constitution Avenue, NW., room N-5605, Washington, DC, (202) 693-1233

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 6th day of February, 2001.
Joe N. Kennedy,
Acting Assistant Secretary of Labor for Employment Standards.
