The Commission may require the response to any such order to be made under oath. The response shall be provided in the form and within the time specified by the Commission.

Historical and Revision Notes RevisedSectionSource (U.S. Code)Source (Statutes at Large) 4230346 App.:1710a(d)Pub. L. 100–418, title X, § 10002(d), Aug. 23, 1988, 102 Stat. 1571; Pub. L. 105–258, title I, § 111(4), Oct. 14, 1998, 112 Stat. 1911. In subsection (b), the words “subpoena witnesses and evidence” are substituted for “issue subpoenas to compel the attendance and testimony of witnesses and the production of records or other evidence” for consistency in the revised title and to eliminate unnecessary words. In subsection (c), the words “in its discretion” are omitted as unnecessary.
