If there's an amendment to an act, does an agency have to comply immediately or can it wait for a FAR change or final rule?
In particular, the new changes at 15 USC 657q in regard to consolidation of contract requirements.
Non DoD.

What "new changes" are you talking about? Please be specific. Are you talking about changes to the statute or changes to the implementing regulations.

Sorry, proposed SBA rule implementing 15 U.S.C. 657q. Must we still act even though this SBA rule isn't final?

No. You don't have to comply with a rule until there is a rule, which is on the effective date of an interim rule or a final rule. A proposed rule is just that -- proposed.
