Summary

SUMMARY: The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) is issuing this interim final regulation with a request for comments on changes to its existing Privacy Act regulation.

The interim final regulation describes the policies and procedures whereby individuals may obtain notification of whether an FHFA or FHFA–OIG system of records contains information about the individual and, if so, how to access or amend a record under the Privacy Act.

DATES: The interim final regulation is effective August 19, 2011. FHFA will accept comments on the interim final regulation on or before October 18, 2011.
