SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract and Request for Comments
NCUA is amending/reinstating the collection for 3133-0167. The
collection of information requirement is that any insured credit union
must apply for and receive approval from the NCUA Regional Director
before establishing a credit union branch outside the United States
unless the foreign branch is located on a United States military
institution or embassy outside the United States. The application must
include (1) a business plan, (2) written approval by the state
supervisory agency if the applicant is a state-chartered credit union,
and (3) documentation evidencing written permission from the host
country to establish the branch that explicitly recognizes NCUA's
authority to examine and take any enforcement actions, including
conservatorship and liquidation actions. There is no change to the
burden hours from previous submissions.
The NCUA requests that you send your comments on this collection to
the location listed in the addresses section. Your comments should
address: (a) The necessity of the information collection for the proper
performance of NCUA, including whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of our estimate of the burden
(hours and cost) of the collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways we could
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways we could minimize the burden of the collection
of the information on the respondents such as through the use of
automated collection techniques or other forms of information
technology. It is NCUA's policy to make all comments available to the
public for review.
