FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION
Privacy Act of 1974; Amendment to an Existing System of Records
AGENCY: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
ACTION: Notice of amendment to an existing system of records--
``Confidential Employee Financial Disclosure Statement System''
(formerly ``Employee Financial Disclosure Statement System'').
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: As part of an ongoing examination of the FDIC's systems of
records, the ``Employee Financial Disclosure Statement System'' has
been reviewed for compliance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C.
552a. Numerous minor amendments have been made that will clarify and/or
more accurately describe the following categories in this system of
records: System name, system location, categories of individuals
covered by the system, categories of records in the system, authority
for maintenance of the system, retrievability, and retention and
disposal.
EFFECTIVE DATE: June 2, 1994.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Frederick N. Ottie, Attorney, FDIC,
550-17th Street NW., Washington, DC 20429, (202) 898-6679.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FDIC's system of records entitled
``Employee Financial Disclosure Statement System'' is being amended to
clarify and/or more accurately describe its contents. These
modifications include changing the system name to the ``Confidential
Employee Financial Disclosure Statement System,'' updating titles of
existing forms and sources of authority, and rewording descriptions of
the contents of existing forms. Additionally, the description of
individuals covered by the system specifically includes prospective
employees in order to extend system coverage to those individuals under
consideration for positions identified in 5 CFR 2634.904 who are
required to file a Confidential Financial Disclosure Report as
authorized by 5 CFR 2634.903(b)(3). This refinement has been
coordinated with and approved by the Office of Government Ethics.
Finally, the description of retention and disposal procedures is
expanded to delineate the retention and disposal procedures for the
records of prospective employees who are not selected for employment
and to clarify that disposal of information in automated computer files
is by deletion.
Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the FDIC amends the
``Employee Financial Disclosure Statement System'' to read as follows:
FDIC 30-64-0006
Confidential Employee Financial Disclosure Statement System.
Note: Complete text appears at 46 FR 45687, Sep. 14, 1981;

29, 1988.

review and resolution of conflicts of interest disclosed therein. A
