Description
This is the notice of proposed rulemaking for the origianal version of the FTC Telemarketing Sales Rule, 60 Fed. Reg. 8313 (Feb. 14, 1995). The FTC proposes to implement the Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act. Section 3 of the Act directs the FTC to prescribe rules, within 365 days of enactment of the Act, prohibiting deceptive telemarketing acts or practices and other abusive telemarketing acts or practices. This proposed rule led to a final rule that was later extensively expanded and amended.
