proposal to establish and maintain a new system of records. The 
proposed new system is being established under the NCUA's authority 
under the Federal Credit Union Act, 12 U.S.C. 1751, et. seq. The

public, providing interested parties with information on the agency's 
initiatives, required reports including the 5300 Call Report, and

notice satisfies the Privacy Act requirement that an agency publish a 
system of records notice in the Federal Register when there is an 
addition to the agency's systems of records.

Circular A-108. NCUA-23 and all of the NCUA's Standard Routine Uses are 
published in full below. All of the NCUA's SORNs are available at
