A Note to Our Readers

The homepage of the CRE website states it is an “Archive.” Its focus is on the development and implementation of centralized regulatory review dating back to the mid-sixties in the United States. The material presented therein is from those individuals who were responsible for implementing the said program. Therefore we have no objection to those who continue to download our site in part or in total. Vintage OIRA
