FDA is responsible for the regulation and inspection of food industry and drug industry including prescription drugs, OTC drugs, cosmetics, veterinary drugs, vaccines etc. By which they are responsible to protect and promote health society. It will not affect me or the place where I am working but my background in Pharmaceutical production and management brings interest in this regulation. Because when pharmaceuticals are committed to provide quality services to the community at the same time they have to follow the rules and regulations which cost the business a good amount of money to introduce a new regulation. Here in this case the gluten free drug manufacturing...

The agency under the USDA for which the departmental proposed regulation falls is the Food and Nutrition Service, (FNS); the FNS works to reduce hunger among low-income populations providing greater access to higher nutritional standards with the aid of the U.S. agriculture (www.USDA.gov). The proposal addresses the administrative aspect of local educational agencies, (LEA), on the school lunch program and how best to ensure accurate documentation and assessment of family eligibility. The proposal affects section 304 of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act (Pub. L. 111-296) (www.USDA.gov). Why the Agency and Regulation is of Interest The proposed regulation is of interest due to the fact that it will directly affect the lives of thousands of low income children for which my job concerns.

Will this proposed regulation affect you, or the business in which you are working? If so, how? Federal Railroad administration controls the regulation. It interests me because this regulation would increase the safety of individuals. I feel really comfortable and safer since I utilize the rail transportation everyday. There were certain railroad incidents in the past, which cause the public to lose trust and doubt the capability of the railroad employees. Hopefully, the well-designed training program would have the potential to reduce risk in the railroad environment therefore; will reduce the frequency and severity of accidents. 2. Describe the proposal/change. Proposal emphasis on the training of the railroad employees perhaps which might reduce the frequency and severity of certain accidents. FRA is requiring that each employer of one or more safety-related railroad employees (whether the employer is a railroad, contractor, or subcontractor) train and qualify each such employee on the Federal railroad safety laws, regulations, and orders that the employee is required to comply with, as well as any relevant railroad rules and procedures promulgated to implement those Federal railroad safety laws, regulations, and orders.

...Administrative Agency Week 2 Assignment MGMT 520 1. State the administrative agency which controls the regulation. Explain why this agency and your proposed regulation interests you (briefly). Will this proposed regulation affect you or the business in which you are working? If so, how? The regulation I have decided to follow is governed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. As an avid animal lover, I am very interested in the regulations proposed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services. This particular proposal surrounding chimpanzees is close to my heart since there are a great number of laboratories performing testing on chimpanzees every day. Chimps often die as a result of the testing being performed. Chimpanzees are becoming more endangered both in the wild and in captivity. While this proposed regulation has no direct effect on my current business, there would be indirect effects relating to the laboratory experiments or lack thereof. If laboratories were unable to use chimpanzees to test medications and make up for example, there could be a decrease in the production of these products. A decrease of production in these products could result in higher costs for the consumer. 2. Describe the proposal/change. (10 points) The U.S. Fish and Wildlife propose that all chimpanzees, both wild and in captivity, be placed on the endangered species list. After a 5 year review of the species, it has been determined that there should be no distinction between wild and...

...1.State the administrative agency which controls the regulation. Explain why this agency and your proposed regulation interests you (briefly). Will this proposed regulation affect you or the business in which you are working? If so, how? The proposed regulation that is of interest is “Removing Any References to or Reliance on Credit Ratings in Commission Regulations; Proposing Alternatives to the Use of Credit” submitted by Commodity Futures Trading Commission or CFTC. I am interested in this regulation because I deal with swaps trading every day. This proposed regulation will most likely not affect my company because we invest in the more standardized derivatives. We also have internal auditors to oversee how we invest our clients’ funds. 2. Describe the proposal/change. The proposed change is about clarifying and standardizing the current legislation on swaps. As it stands now, the regulations on swaps trading on few and far between. Along with those regulations are privately-run, for-profit credit rating agencies. These two problems combined are how Goldman Sachs was able to swindle their investors and likely why this regulation was originally proposed. Many investors looking to engage in a swap transaction first have to decided what type of swap they would like to enter into. I will use an Interest Rate Swap or IRS as reference for my example (although an IRS is one of the more basic and regulated swaps). An IRS is a swap where investors decide on a notional...

(10 points) - Centers for Medicare Medicaid Services (Department of Health and Human Services) is the department that has introduced this regulation. When it comes to health care it affects every citizen of the United States. I show interest in this because it can affect me with the cost of health insurance. Health care has been a big topic lately especially with the introduction on Obama Care. When it comes to what I pay for Health Care it concerns me because that’s more money that has to be spent on it and with some of the prices of health care it is already an outrageous price. The penalties that they are wanting to establish for CHP could potentially raise our Health Care prices. 2. Describe the proposal/change. (10 points) - This proposed rule would require a controlling health plan (CHP) to submit information and documentation...

...State the administrative agency which controls the regulation. Explain why this agency and your proposed regulation interests you (briefly). Will this proposed regulation affect you or the business in which you are working? If so, how? The administrative agency that controls this regulation is the Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives Bureau (The ATF), whose parent agency is the Department of Justice. This agency and its proposed regulation interests me because I am a supporter of the second amendment and I am opposed of any regulations that seek to limit the second amendment. I do not own any firearms, nor do I expect to receive any firearms in the immediate future, but my fiance’s father owns many firearms and, in the future, when he passes away, those guns are likely to be transferred to her and this legislation will affect that transfer by requiring the receiver of those firearms to verify that they are a “responsible person” This regulation will not affect the business in which I am working. That business is Verizon Wireless, which does not deal in any firearms (at least to my knowledge). I am interested in this subject from a purely academic point of view. Describe the proposal/change. This regulation would require a person legally receiving a firearm (ostensibly someone receiving it as a gift or as part of an inheritance) to prove that they are a “responsible person”, furthermore this “responsible person” would have to complete a form and submit photographs and...
