12 CFR Part 1101

[Docket No. FFIEC-2017-0003]


Description of Office, Procedures, and Public Information

AGENCY: Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC 
or Council) is adopting as a final rule the interim final rule 
published July 3, 2017. The interim final rule announced revisions and 
additions to the Council's information disclosure regulations under the 
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA Regulations). The interim final rule 
also replaced the interim final rule published on December 27, 2016. 
The revisions in the interim final rule implement recent statutory 
amendments to the FOIA that are mandated by the FOIA Improvement Act of 
2016, as well as update the language of the Council's regulations to 
more closely mirror the language of the FOIA and to reflect the 
Council's current FOIA procedures.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Judith Dupre, Executive Secretary, 
Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council, via telephone:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Council \1\ is finalizing its interim 
rule (82 FR 30724 (July 3, 2017)), which revised its information 
disclosure regulations under the Freedom of Information Act \2\ (FOIA 
Regulations). On June 30, 2016, the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) 
was amended by the FOIA Improvement Act of 2016 \3\ (FOIA Improvement 
Act). Among other things, section 3 of the FOIA Improvement Act 
required each Federal agency to revise its disclosure regulations and 
procedures for processing FOIA requests in order to conform to the 
substantive amendments made by section 2 of the FOIA Improvement Act by 
December 27, 2016. Accordingly, the Council implemented the required 
substantive and procedural changes necessary to comply with the FOIA 
Improvement Act's amendments through issuance of the interim final rule 
(81 FR 94937 (December 27, 2016)). In addition, the Council made 
certain changes to its FOIA Regulations to reflect revisions brought 
about by prior amendments to the FOIA that were incorporated into the 
Council's procedures and to make the FOIA process easier for the public 
to navigate. In drafting these amendments to the FOIA Regulations, the 
Council consulted the ``Guidance for Agency FOIA Regulations'' issued 
by the U.S. Department of Justice's Office for Information Policy. No 
comments were received in response to the interim final rule and it is 
being finalized without change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The members of the Council are the Board of Governors of the 
Federal Reserve System, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, 
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the National Credit Union 
Administration, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and 
the State Liaison Committee.
