Key points

  • Comments were due by 13 October 2026, sixty-two days after publication.

1Checking the count once more

The previous article had three bureaus of one department holding three identifiers. Here the field carries three entries while two regulators are issuing the proposal.

2Two regulators, separate parts

RegulatorWhere the text landsIdentifier
Comptroller of the Currency (OCC)12 CFR Parts 5, 24, 25 and 351557-AF57
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)12 CFR Parts 345 and 3463064-AG31

The title is the same, 12; the parts differ by regulator. Bank supervision divides one field among several authorities, so joint rulemaking is common there and takes one of the shapes seen so far in this series. These two regulators appear together in one other article on this site, a rule defining unsafe or unsound practices.

3What is proposed

The proposal makes substantive, technical and process-oriented changes to Community Reinvestment Act regulations, and states that the intent is to refocus on the statutory purpose. Being a proposal it is not settled; comments were due by 13 October 2026, sixty-two days after publication.

The series closes with two bureaus of one department sharing a single identifier.

Why it matters

Where a parent department and an authority coexist, the Federal Register agency field exceeds the number of regulators. Count the bodies issuing the rule rather than the entries in the field.
