SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On July 31, 1984, the IRS issued proposed regulations (LR-97-79) relating to corporations filing consolidated returns (49 FR 30528). Portions of these proposed consolidated return regulations were withdrawn by subsequent notices of proposed rulemaking (CO-78-90 and REG-103805-99) published in the Federal Register on February 4, 1991 (56 FR 4228) and September 26, 2000 (65 FR 57755).

On August 31, 1984, the IRS issued proposed regulations (LR-107-84) relating to collapsible corporations (49 FR 34523).

The IRS is withdrawing these proposed regulations because of intervening amendments to the Internal Revenue Code and because these regulations projects will not be undertaken in the foreseeable future (or if undertaken, the regulations will be reproposed).

Drafting Information

The principal author of this withdrawal notice is Charles M. Whedbee of the Office of the Associate Chief Counsel (Corporate). However, other personnel from the IRS and Treasury participated in its development.
