## Abstract

The National Labor Relations Board is amending its rules that govern compliance proceedings to clarify that Regional Directors have authority, in appropriate circumstances, to issue a compliance specification at any stage during the pendency of an unfair labor practice proceeding. The amendments are being adopted in order to resolve any possible ambiguity that may exist with respect to this authority. The intended effect of the revisions is to avoid needless challenges to this procedure.
