Final rule; technical amendment. ACTION: SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect approval of a supplemental new animal drug application (NADA) filed by Pfizer, Inc. The supplemental NADA provides for use of oxytetracycline hydrochloride soluble powder for skeletal marking of finfish fry and fingerlings by immersion. DATES: This rule is effective July 18, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pfizer, Inc., 235 East 42d St., New York, NY 10017–5755, filed a supplement to NADA 8–622 that provides for use of TERRAMYCIN–343 (oxytetracycline HCl) Soluble Powder for skeletal marking of finfish fry and fingerlings by immersion. The approval of this supplemental NADA relied on publicly available safety and effectiveness data contained in Public Master File (PMF) 5667 which were compiled under National Research Support Project-7 (NRSP–7), a national agricultural research program for obtaining clearances for use of new drugs in minor animal species and for special uses. In addition, the supplemental NADA provides for the addition of statements to product labeling warning against the use of this product in drinking water of lactating dairy cattle. The supplemental NADA is approved as of June 13, 2005, and the regulations in 21 CFR 529.1660 are amended to reflect the approval. The basis of approval is discussed in the freedom of information summary. In addition, FDA has found that the regulations contain incorrect statements warning against the use of oxytetracycline soluble powder in calves intended for veal. Accordingly, the regulations in 21 CFR 520.1660d are amended to reflect appropriate warning statements for this product. This action is being taken to improve the accuracy of the regulations.

The Treasury Department and the IRS agree, and the final regulations adopt the suggested change. Under the proposed regulations, the predeceased parent rule does not apply to transfers to collateral heirs if, at the time of the transfer, ‘‘the transferor (or the transferor’s spouse or former spouse) has any living lineal descendant.’’ Thus, under the proposed regulations, if, at the time of the transfer, the transferor has no living lineal descendants but the transferor’s spouse or former spouse does, the predeceased parent rule will not apply to any transfer by the transferor to a collateral heir. A number of commentators pointed out that the parenthetical language is inconsistent with the purpose and language of the statute, and will inappropriately narrow the application of the predeceased parent rule with respect to collateral heirs. The Treasury Department and the IRS agree, and the parenthetical language is removed in the final regulations. Accordingly, the final regulations require that, for the predeceased parent rule to apply to transfers to collateral heirs, only the transferor must have no living lineal descendants at the time of the transfer. The proposed regulations provided an exception to the general rule that assigns an individual to the youngest of the generations to which that individual may be assigned. Under the exception, an adopted individual will be treated as a member of the generation that is one generation below the adoptive parent for purposes of determining whether a transfer to the adopted individual from the adoptive parent (or the spouse or former spouse of the adoptive parent, or a lineal descendant of a grandparent of the adoptive parent) is subject to the GST tax. The proposed regulations defined an ‘‘adopted individual’’ as an individual who is: (1) A descendant of a parent of the adoptive parent (or the spouse or former spouse of the adoptive parent); and (2) under the age of 18 at the time of the adoption. Two commentators expressed concern that this objective test (specifically, the age at the time of the adoption) provides a strong inducement to engage in a taxmotivated adoption, particularly in the case of older minors, because of the amount of GST tax that thereby may be avoided. One commentator suggested lowering the limit on the age of the individual at the time of the adoption for purposes of the test. The other commentator recommended adding a third element to the definition of adopted individual, namely, that the individual was not adopted primarily for tax-avoidance purposes.
