Abstract
On October 22, 2002, NHTSA published an interim final rule that amended the Federal motor vehicle safety standard on child restraint systems to permit the manufacture and sale of harnesses that attach to school bus seat backs as long as the harnesses are properly labeled. The agency scheduled the interim final rule to terminate on December 1, 2003, while requesting comments on permanently adopting the provisions of the interim final rule. To allow for more time to respond to the comments, this document delays the expiration date of the interim final rule for an additional nine months.
