WITHOUT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (WHICH IS AVAILABLE TO BANK
SUPERVISORY AGENCIES) NONE OF THIS DATA SHOULD BE DISCLOSED TO THE
PUBLIC. IN ADDITION, THE IMPLEMENTATION DATE FOR THIS COLLECTION
SHOUL BE JUNE 1986, TO ALLOW THE BANKS TIME TO ALTER THEIR
AUTOMATED SYSTEMS FINALLY, THE FFIEC HAS FAILED TO PROVIDE
SUFFICIENT DATA TO INDICATE THE SUPERVISORY USES OF THE DATA,
THEREFORE, THERE IS A QUESTION AS TO HOW THE DATA WILL BE USED. THE
FFIEC WILL PROVIDE OMB, NOT LATER THAN JULY 1, 1986, WITH A
DETAILED DISCRIPTION OF HOW THE DATA IS USED.
