SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

[top] In the Federal Register of November 2, 2012 (77 FR 66287), the Commodity Futures Trading Commission published final rules adopting new regulations to implement particular provisions of the

Commodity Exchange Act, as added by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. That document inadvertently failed to remove several obsolete provisions in §?1.33(a)(2) and (b)(3). Accordingly, the Commission is making a correcting amendment to §?1.33 that removes the second paragraph (a)(2)(ii), removes paragraph (a)(2)(v), and removes the introductory clause to paragraph (b)(3).

Agricultural commodity, Agriculture, Brokers, Committees, Commodity futures, Conflicts of interest, Consumer protection, Definitions, Designated contract markets, Directors, Major swap participants, Minimum financial requirements for intermediaries, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Swap dealers, Swaps.

Accordingly, 17 CFR part 1 is corrected by making the following correcting amendments:
