How the FR and CFR Relate to Each Other
TheFederal Registeris the chronological publication of proposed regulations, final regulations, and related materials. TheCode of Federal Regulations(CFR) is a subject arrangement of regulations. A regulation will be published first in theFederal Registerand will later be included in the appropriate volume of the CFR.
Like Congressional legislative history, the regulatory history recorded in theFederal Registercan be invaluable to researchers interested in the intent of lawmakers and the purpose of regulations.
