                  Eliminate Privacy Notice Confusion Act

 As ordered reported by the House Committee on Financial Services on March 26, 2015


 Under current law, financial institutions must provide customers with an annual notice of
 their policies for disclosing personal information about customers to third parties. H.R. 601
 would exempt financial institutions from that requirement if their policies remain
 unchanged from the most recent disclosure statement that was sent to customers.

 CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 601 would increase direct spending; therefore,
pay-as-you-go procedures apply. However, based on information from the Bureau of
Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB), CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 601 would not
significantly affect the workload of the agency and any additional costs would be
insignificant. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 601 would not affect revenues.
Implementing the bill would not affect discretionary costs because the CFPB is
permanently authorized to spend amounts transferred from the Federal Reserve System.

H.R. 601 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal
governments.

The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Susan Willie. The estimate was approved by
Theresa Gullo, Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
