        <RULE_TITLE>Persuader Agreements: Employer and Labor Relations Consultant Reporting Under the LMRDA</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department of Labor intends to publish a final rule revising its interpretation of section 203(c) of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA).  That statutory provision creates an "advice" exemption from reporting requirements that apply to employers and other persons in connection with persuading employees about the right to organize and bargain collectively. The revised interpretation would narrow the scope of the advice exemption.]]></ABSTRACT>
