FILE:  -177610


DATE: July 23, 1982


MATTER OF: Reconsideration of decisions on services provided
               to Federal credit unions


DIGSL6T;


Decisions in 1-177610, August 17, 19811 58 Coup.
Gen. 610 (1979); and B-164310, August 28, 1968,
concerning the services that Federal agencies
may provide to Federal credit unions under
section 124 of the Federal Credit Union Act,
12 U.S.C.oS 1770, are affirn-ed,, Both the
language of section 124 and ;.ts legislative
history show that the services authorized only
are those that normally would accompany the
allotted space, Such special services as
security alarms and telephones may not be
provided by agencies either at no charge or
on a reimbursable basis, although we have
no objection if credit unions can save money
by tying in their lines with those of the
host agencies provided that the credit unicns
are billed directly; the feasibility of that
alternative should be explored with the tele.-
phone corpany.


     The Credit Union National Association, Inc., j1/has requested
reconsideration of several decisions--B-177610, August 17, 1981;
58 Comp. Gen. 610 (1979); and B-164310, August 28, 1968-pertaining
to the services that Federal agencies may provide Federal credit
unions under section 124 of the Federal Credit Union Act, as annnded,
12 U.S.C. 5 1770. The effect of these decisicns Is to allow Federal
agencies to provide Federal credit unions with only those services
that normally accompany space allotted under section 124, but to
require the credit unions to procure directly special services such
as telephones and security alarm systems. For the reasons given
below, we affirm those decisions.


. The National Credit Union Administration has joined in the request
    for reconsideration. The National Association of Federal Credit
    Unions has submitted a similar request.
