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.
