regulations were published before the enactment of the Internal Revenue 
Code of 1986, do not reflect changes to the tax law made after their 
publication, and will not be finalized unless reproposed.

DATES: These proposed regulations are withdrawn June 27, 2001.

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withdrawn by subsequent notices of proposed rulemaking (CO-78-90 and 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).
