These amendments were made by ' 624 of the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (the act) and provide relief to fiduciaries of participant-directed individual account plans where, in the absence of investment directions from a participant, the plan invests such participant's assets in a 'qualified default investment alternative.'

Section 624(b) of the act directs the department to issue final regulations under ' 404(c)(5)(A) of ERISA no later than six months after the date of enactment of the act. Section 404(c)(5) and its corresponding regulations will become effective for plan years beginning after Dec. 31, 2006.
