Text of Proposed Restatement of 401(k) and 401(m) Regulations (PDF)
220 pages (!). Excerpt: "Treasury and the IRS believe that a single restatement of the section 401(k) and section 401(m) rules serves the interests of plan sponsors, third-party administrators, plan participants, and plan beneficiaries.... To the extent practicable, this preamble identifies the substantive changes and explains the underlying analysis. In many cases, the changes will clarify or simplify existing guidance and will reduce plan administrative burdens." (Internal Revenue Service)
