Introduction This notice informs the public of FHFA’s proposed revisions to an existing system of records. This notice satisfies the Privacy Act requirement that an agency publish a system of records notice in the Federal Register when there is an addition or change to an agency’s system of records. Congress has recognized that application of all requirements of the Privacy Act to certain categories of records may have an undesirable and often unacceptable effect upon agencies in the conduct of necessary public business. Consequently, Congress established general exemptions and specific exemptions that could be used to exempt records from provisions of the Privacy Act. Congress also required that exempting records from provisions of the Privacy Act would require the head of an agency to publish a determination to exempt a record from the Privacy Act as a rule in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act. The Director of FHFA has determined that records and information in this system of records are not exempt from the requirements of the Privacy Act. As required by the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), and pursuant to section 7 of OMB Circular No. A–108, ‘‘Federal Agency Responsibilities for Review, Reporting, and Publication under the PO 00000 Frm 00046 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 9519 Privacy Act,’’ dated December 23, 2016 (81 FR 94424 (Dec. 23, 2016)), prior to publication of this notice, FHFA submitted a report describing the revisions to the system of records covered by this notice to the Office of Management and Budget, the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform of the House of Representatives, and the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs of the Senate. III. Revised System of Records The ‘‘Suspended Counterparty System’’ (FHFA–23) system of records is being revised to change the name to ‘‘Suspended Counterparty Program System,’’ expand the purpose of the system, and to add three new routine uses. The name change is to more accurately reflect the system and program. The current purpose of the system is to receive reports from the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac), and the eleven Federal Home Loan Banks (FHLBanks) when they become aware that an individual or institutions and any affiliates thereof, who are currently or have been engaged in a covered transaction with a regulated entity within three years of when the regulated entity becomes aware of the covered misconduct, have engaged in fraud or other financial misconduct. FHFA is proposing to expand the purpose of the system to include collecting information from other organizations and entities, besides Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the FHLBanks, that voluntarily submit reports to FHFA about counterparties that have engaged in covered misconduct as defined in the Suspended Counterparty Regulation at 12 CFR 1227.2. The three new routine uses will permit FHFA to share information in the Suspended Counterparty System with Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the FHLBanks (hereinafter ‘‘regulated entities); with state and federal housing or financial regulators; and state or federal professional licensing agencies. The revisions to the system of records notice is described in detail below. All other aspects of the system of records notice, other than the changes described below, remain unchanged.

II. Introduction

    This notice informs the public of FHFA's proposed revisions to an 
existing system of records. This notice satisfies the Privacy Act 
requirement that an agency publish a system of records notice in the 
Federal Register when there is an addition or change to an agency's 
system of records. Congress has recognized that application of all 
requirements of the Privacy Act to certain categories of records may 
have an undesirable and often unacceptable effect upon agencies in the 
conduct of necessary public business. Consequently, Congress 
established general exemptions and specific exemptions that could be 
used to exempt records from provisions of the Privacy Act. Congress 
also required that exempting records from provisions of the Privacy Act 
would require the head of an agency to publish a determination to 
exempt a record from the Privacy Act as a rule in accordance with the 
Administrative Procedure Act. The Director of FHFA has determined that 
records and information in this system of records are not exempt from 
the requirements of the Privacy Act.
    As required by the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), and pursuant to 
section 7 of OMB Circular No. A-108, ``Federal Agency Responsibilities 
for Review, Reporting, and Publication under the Privacy Act,'' dated 
December 23, 2016 (81 FR 94424 (Dec. 23, 2016)), prior to publication 
of this notice, FHFA submitted a report describing the revisions to the 
system of records covered by this notice to the Office of Management 
and Budget, the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform of the 
House of Representatives, and the Committee on Homeland Security and 
Governmental Affairs of the Senate.

III. Revised System of Records

    The ``Suspended Counterparty System'' (FHFA-23) system of records 
is being revised to change the name to ``Suspended Counterparty Program 
System,'' expand the purpose of the system, and to add three new 
routine uses. The name change is to more accurately reflect the system 
and program. The current purpose of the system is to receive reports 
from the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the 
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac), and the eleven 
Federal Home Loan Banks (FHLBanks) when they become aware that an 
individual or institutions and any affiliates thereof, who are 
currently or have been engaged in a covered transaction with a 
regulated entity within three years of when the regulated entity 
becomes aware of the covered misconduct, have engaged in fraud or other 
financial misconduct. FHFA is proposing to expand the purpose of the 
system to include collecting information from other organizations and 
entities, besides Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the FHLBanks, that 
voluntarily submit reports to FHFA about counterparties that have 
engaged in covered misconduct as defined in the Suspended Counterparty 
Regulation at 12 CFR 1227.2.
    The three new routine uses will permit FHFA to share information in 
the Suspended Counterparty System with Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the 
FHLBanks (hereinafter ``regulated entities); with state and federal 
housing or financial regulators; and state or federal professional 
licensing agencies.
    The revisions to the system of records notice is described in 
detail below. All other aspects of the system of records notice, other 
than the changes described below, remain unchanged.
SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER:
    Suspended Counterparty Program System FHFA-23.

SECURITY CLASSIFICATION:
    Sensitive but unclassified.
