## Abstract

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) published a final rule in the Federal Register on May 13, 1996 (61 FR 21964), amending its medical regulations in 38 CFR part 17 by making a number of nonsubstantive changes. Specifically, section numbers were redesignated, redundant and obsolete material was removed, certain position and organizational titles were changed, and material previously deleted was restored. The document contained an error in an amendatory instruction. We removed portions of Sec. 17.31 and inadvertently redesignated Sec. 17.31(b)(5) as the new Sec. 17.31, creating two sections for Sec. 17.31. This document will correct that error by removing the second, obsolete Sec. 17.31.
