RE: 16 CFR Part 436 Dear Secretary: Pursuant to a bulletin issued regarding the above mentioned FTC Rule change, as a Kentucky Fried Chicken Franchisee and a member of the American Franchisee Association I would like to offer the following comments. I believe that it is in the best interest of free enterprise and small business that the FTC prohibit franchisors from:
These provisions clearly violate the spirit of federal and state due process constitutional law. I would also be in favor of eliminating the FTC Franchise Rule. I support the provision that would require the franchisor to disclose earnings information prior to investing in a Franchise. Very truly yours, Walter J. Knezevich |
