| 2012-29500 | Amendments to the Abandoned Plan Regulations | Proposed Rule | This document contains proposed amendments to three regulations previously published under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 that facilitate the termination of, and distribution of benefits from, individual account pension plans that have been abandoned by their sponsoring employers. The principal amendments propose to permit bankruptcy trustees to use the Department's Abandoned Plan Program to terminate and wind up the plans of sponsors in liquidation under chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In addition, other technical amendments are proposed to improve the operation of the regulations. If adopted, the amendments would affect employee benefit plans, primarily small defined contribution plans, participants and beneficiaries, service providers, and individuals appointed to serve as trustees under chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. | 2012-12-12 | 2012 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2012/12/12/2012-29500/amendments-to-the-abandoned-plan-regulations | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-12-12/pdf/2012-29500.pdf | Labor Department; Employee Benefits Security Administration | 271,131 | This document contains proposed amendments to three regulations previously published under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 that facilitate the termination of, and distribution of benefits from, individual account pension plans that... |
