Correction


[top] On page 34809, second column, in paragraph (c)(1) of § 51.30, remove page 36306 "(except increases described in the first sentence of § 51.20(d)(2) of this part)" and replace it with "(except increases described in the first sentence of this section)."

Clarification

In revising Subpart B-Obtaining Recognition and Certification for Per Diem Payments, the VA inadvertently left out instructions for § 51.41. This section is not changing and will remain in the CFR if this proposed rule is adopted.

Approved: June 19, 2015.

Chief Impact Analyst, Office of Regulation Policy & Management.
