Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection August 2, 2019 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Debt Collection Practices (Regulation F); Extension of Comment Period
Document Number: 2019-16476
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2019-08-02
Agency: Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection
On May 21, 2019, the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (Bureau) published in the Federal Register a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) requesting comment on the Bureau's proposed amendments to Regulation F which implements the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). The proposed amendments would prescribe Federal rules governing the activities of debt collectors, as that term is defined in the FDCPA. The NPRM provided a 90-day comment period that was set to close on August 19, 2019. To allow interested persons more time to consider and submit their comments, the Bureau has determined that an extension of the comment period until September 18, 2019, is appropriate.
Home Mortgage Disclosure (Regulation C); Reopening of Comment Period
Document Number: 2019-16190
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2019-08-02
Agency: Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection
The Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (Bureau) is reopening the comment period for specific aspects of the proposed rule published by the Bureau in the Federal Register on May 13, 2019 (May 2019 Proposal). The May 2019 Proposal proposed amendments to Regulation C relating to the coverage thresholds for reporting data on closed-end mortgage loans and open-end lines of credit and partial exemptions under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA). To facilitate the potential revisions of the thresholds that the Bureau proposed to take effect on January 1, 2020, the Bureau used a 30-day comment period, which ended on June 12, 2019. Later this summer, the national loan level dataset for 2018 and the Bureau's annual overview of residential mortgage lending based on that data (collectively, the 2018 HMDA Data) will be released. Stakeholders have asked to submit comments on the May 2019 Proposal that reflect the 2018 HMDA Data. To allow for the submission of such comments, the Bureau now reopens the comment period on certain aspects of the proposal until October 15, 2019.
