NATIONAL CREDIT UNION ADMINISTRATION
12 CFR Part 790
Description of NCUA; Requests for Agency Action
AGENCY: National Credit Union Administration (NCUA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The NCUA Board amends its rules to state that the Executive
Director and the General Counsel report to the NCUA Board. The purpose
of the rule is to enhance the organization and operations of NCUA.
DATES: Effective on December 11, 1997.
ADDRESSES: National Credit Union Administration, 1775 Duke Street,
Alexandria, Virginia 22314-3428.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert M. Fenner, General Counsel,
Office of the General Counsel, at the above address or telephone
(703)518-6540. E-mail questions may be sent to ogcmail@ncua.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Part 790 of NCUA Rules and Regulations, 12
CFR Part 790, describes the organization of NCUA's central and regional
offices, and sets forth the places and method of obtaining information
from NCUA. Prior to this amendment, Sec. 790.2(b)(7) and
Sec. 790.2(b)(8) did not state specifically to whom the Executive
Director and the General Counsel report. Accordingly, the above
sections are amended to provide that the Executive Director and the
General Counsel report to the NCUA Board.
Immediate Effective Date
Because these amendments concern the organization of NCUA, prior
notice and comment are not required by 5 U.S.C. 553. These amendments
are effective upon publication in the Federal Register.
Regulatory Procedures
Regulatory Flexibility Act
NCUA certifies that part 790 will not have a significant impact on
a substantial number of small credit unions. Accordingly, a regulatory
flexibility analysis is not required. The rule affects internal NCUA
operations only. Thus, it will not result in any additional burden for
regulated institutions. The purpose of the rule is to enhance the
organization and operations of NCUA.
Paperwork Reduction Act
The amendments to the rule do not contain any collection of
information requirements pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 and regulations of the Office of Management and Budget.
Executive Order 12612
Part 790 only applies to NCUA and the NCUA Board. Accordingly, NCUA
has determined that the rule will not have a substantial impact on the
states or state interests. Further, the rule will not preempt
provisions of state law or regulations.
