Supplementary Information

The Board published an interim final rule in the Federal Register on October 28, 2010 (75 FR 66554) (Docket No. R-1394), amending Regulation Z (Truth in Lending) to implement provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, Public Law 111-208, 124 Stat. 1376 (Jul. 21, 2010). In the interim final rule, Docket No. R-1394, published on October 28, 2010, (75 FR 66554) make the following corrections: 1. On page 66555, in the first column, line 24, correct “April 1, 2010” to read “April 1, 2011”. 2. On page 66556, in the third column, immediately under the heading “IV. Section-by-Section Analysis,” add the following: “Section 226.1 Authority, Purpose, Coverage, Organization, Enforcement and Liability Section 226.1(d) Organization Section 226.1(d) describes how Regulation Z is organized. Section 226.1(d)(5) describes Subpart E of Regulation Z, which this interim final rule amends by adding new § 226.42, “Valuation Independence.” The interim final rule also revises comment 1(d)(5)-1 to add a new subpart 1(d)(5)-1.ii, stating that compliance with the interim final rule is mandatory on April 1, 2011, for open- and closed-end extensions of consumer credit secured by the consumer's principal dwelling. The revised comment also states that § 226.36(b), which is substantially similar to § 226.42(c) and (e), is removed effective April 1, 2011. The comment explains that applications for closed-end extensions of credit secured by the consumer's principal dwelling that are received by creditors before April 1, 2011, are subject to § 226.36(b) regardless of the date on which the transaction is consummated. However, parties subject to § 226.36(b) may, at their option, choose to comply with § 226.42 instead of § 226.36(b), for applications received before April 1, 2011. To illustrate, the comment explains that an application for a closed-end extension of credit secured by the consumer's principal dwelling received by a creditor on March 20, 2011, and consummated on May 1, 2011, is subject to § 226.36(b), but the creditor may choose to comply with § 226.42 instead. The comment further explains that, for an application for open- or closed-end credit secured by the consumer's principal dwelling that is received on or after April 1, 2011, the creditor must comply with § 226.42.” 3.
