With the passage of the Education for All Handicapped Children Act, the Bureau of Education of the Handicapped (BEH) was charged with the task of establishing regulations for enactment of the new law. The Federal Register (December 29,1977) reporting the final LD regulations notes that an analysis was made of all comments and testimony regarding the proposed regulations of November 1976.
