Legal authorization and
confidentiality: The FR 1379 family of
forms is authorized pursuant to section
8 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act
(Section 8) 2 and section 11(a) of the
Federal Reserve Act (Section 11(a)).3
Section 8 provides the Board broad
authority to enforce compliance with
laws against entities within its
jurisdiction, including state member
banks. Section 11(a) broadly empowers
the Board to examine ‘‘the affairs of
each Federal reserve bank and of each
member bank.’’ 4 The Board uses the
information obtained from the FR 1379
to help fulfill these obligations. The
forms comprising the FR 1379 family of
forms are voluntary. Individual
respondents may request that
information submitted to the Board
through the FR 1379 family of forms be
kept confidential on a case-by-case
basis. The Consumer Satisfaction
Questionnaire (FR 1379a) does not
collect any personal information from
the respondent and is not likely to be
considered confidential. Three of the
forms (the FRCH—Consumer Survey
(FR 1379b), Consumer Online
Complaint Form (FR 1379c), and
Appraisal Complaint Form (FR 1379d))
collect personal information, such as the
respondent’s name, contact information,
and information regarding the subject of
the complaint. This personal
information may be kept confidential
under exemption 6 of the FOIA to the
extent disclosure of such information
would constitute an unwarranted
invasion of personal privacy.5 In
addition, information concerning the
subject of a complaint may be kept
confidential under exemption 4 of the
FOIA to the extent it involves trade
secrets and confidential commercial and
financial information.6 With respect to
the Consumer Online Complaint Form
(FR 1379c) and Appraisal Complaint
Form (FR 1379d), determinations
regarding disclosure of the information
to third parties of any confidential
portions of these forms would be made
in accordance with the Privacy Act.7 A
