General Comments

Comment:

Distribution of printed material.


One respondent stated that including the solicitation of views or signatures in the definition for distribution of printed material violates the First Amendment. Another respondent stated that this definition is broadly defined to include soliciting information in conjunction with the distribution of printed material. Another stated that the definition for distribution of printed material is too broad and that any distribution of printed material would be regulated, not just distribution associated with a group use.


Response.

The definition for ``distribution of printed material'' has not been included in the amendments to part 251 in the final rule, as the Department has decided not to require a special use authorization for noncommercial distribution of printed material in the final rule.
