## Abstract

This document contains final regulations replacing the existing regulation that establishes the procedures to be followed by IRS officers and employees upon receipt of a request or demand for disclosure of IRS records or information.

The final regulations affect current and former IRS officers, employees and contractors, and persons who make requests or demands for disclosure.
