## Abstract

This final rule makes technical corrections and certain clarifying amendments to HUD's RESPA regulations promulgated by a final rule published on November 17, 2008. The majority of the regulations promulgated by the November 17, 2008, final rule became applicable on January 1, 2010. Now that the regulations have been in use for a little over one year, HUD has identified certain needed technical corrections, which this rule will make, and certain other regulatory provisions in which additional clarification would be helpful.
