[May 27, 2003 (Volume 68, Number 101)] [Unified Agenda] From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [frwais.access.gpo.gov] [Page 31406-31412] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Part LIX National Credit Union Administration ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Semiannual Regulatory Agenda [[Page 31406]] NATIONAL CREDIT UNION ADMINISTRATION (NCUA) _______________________________________________________________________ NATIONAL CREDIT UNION ADMINISTRATION 12 CFR Ch. VII Semiannual Regulatory Agenda AGENCY: National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda. _______________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY: Pursuant to its ongoing policy of reviewing regulations, NCUA is publishing a list of current and projected rulemakings, reviews of existing regulations, and completed actions as of February 20, 2003, to be included in the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions. DATES: This information is current as of February 20, 2003. ADDRESSES: National Credit Union Administration, 1775 Duke Street, Alexandria, Virginia 22314-3428. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For each regulation listed, the person(s) named in the listing, at the above address, unless otherwise noted, or listed telephone number. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of this agenda is to enable credit unions and the public to follow regulatory development and review at NCUA and to participate in that process more effectively. Entries for the agenda appear in one of five possible categories: Prerule stage; proposed rule stage; final rule stage; long-term actions; or completed actions. The agenda is published pursuant to NCUA Interpretive Ruling and Policy Statement Number 87-2 ``Developing and Reviewing Government Regulations,'' 54 FR 35231 (September 18, 1987), which sets out NCUA's policy and procedures for developing and reviewing its regulations. NCUA's policy is to ensure that its regulations impose only minimum required burdens on credit unions, consumers, and the public; are appropriate for the size of the financial institutions it regulates; are issued only after full public participation; and are clear and understandable. Further, NCUA undertakes to review all regulations every 3 years to clarify and simplify existing regulations and eliminate redundant and unnecessary provisions. Executive Order 12866, signed by President Clinton on September 30, 1993, requires independent executive agencies, such as NCUA, to publish a regulatory agenda. Approved by the NCUA Board on March 20, 2003. Becky Baker, Secretary of the Board.
