Worth Noting: RegulationsPlus on Westlaw

The Westlaw® RegulationsPlus™ feature is like having
a well indexed and extensively annotated version of the
CFR at your fingertips. Highlights of the current service
(which has been expanded since its release in 2006)
include:

*An extensive online CFR Index linked directly to CFR sections

*More than 600,000 Notes of Decisions that summarize
federal case law interpreting CFR sections (with links to the cases)

*Cross-references between the CFR and the United States Code

*Links to relevant agency manuals, guidelines, bulletins and
other agency content

*Links to relevant administrative decisions from more
than 150 agency databases

*Links to CFR versions since February 2005, to future
versions, or to renumbered CFR versions

*Federal Agency Tracking Service to track agency actions
from the Federal Register
