Charges for Certain Disclosures

The Federal Trade Commission announces that the current ceiling on allowable charges under Section 612(a) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) will remain unchanged for 1998. Under recent amendments to the FCRA, the Federal Trade Commission is required to increase the $8.00 amount referred to in paragraph (1)(A)(i) of Section 612(a) on January 1 of each year, based proportionally on changes in the Consumer Price Index, with fractional changes rounded to the nearest fifty cents. Since the FCRA amendments only took effect on September 30, 1997, the modified amount shows no increase based on the Consumer Price Index for the period in question, and remains at $8.00.
