SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION. The purpose of this agenda is to enhance the ability of credit unions and the public to follow regulatory developments at NCUA and to participate in that process more fully. Entries in the agenda appear in one of three categories: (1) proposed rule stage; (2) final rule stage; or (3) completed/withdrawn actions. Regardless of the category in which an agenda item appears, the timetable reflecting when NCUA anticipates taking future action on the item is an estimate only and subject to change. Also, where NCUA notes that an item is transitioning from the proposed rule stage to the final rule stage, NCUA is only reporting the item's progress through the regulatory process. That report does not dictate what the final rule will provide or how it will compare to the proposed version of the rule.

The agenda is published pursuant to NCUA Interpretive Rulings and Policy Statements (IRPS) 87-2, "Developing and Reviewing Government Regulations," 54 FR 35231 (Sept. 18, 1987), as amended by IRPS 03-2, 68 FR 31949 (May 29, 2003), as amended by IRPS 13-1, 78 FR 4032 (Jan. 18, 2013), which sets out NCUA's policy and procedure for developing and reviewing its regulations. NCUA's policy is to ensure that regulations impose only the minimum required burden on those they affect; are clear and understandable; are appropriate for the size of credit unions to which they pertain; and are issued only after full public participation. Full public participation includes accepting comments on all proposed rules at www.ncua.gov/Legal/Regs/Pages/PropRegs.aspx and at www.regulations.gov. Further, NCUA reviews one-third of its regulations every year on a rolling basis so that the entirety of its regulations are reviewed in each three-year period. This is done to clarify and simplify existing regulations and eliminate redundant and unnecessary provisions.

Approved by the NCUA Board on February 28, 2014.

NAME: Gerald Poloquin,

Secretary of the Board.
