  <title><![CDATA[
Charges for Certain Disclosures ]]></title>
  <link>http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-24-03-31715</link>
  <description><![CDATA[ The Federal Trade Commission announces that the current $9.00 
ceiling on allowable charges under Section 612(f) of the Fair Credit 
Reporting Act (``FCRA'') will remain unchanged for 2003. Under 1996 
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(f) on January 1 of each year, based proportionally on changes in 
the Consumer Price Index (``CPI''), with fractional changes rounded to 
the nearest fifty cents. The CPI increased 14.89 percent between 
September 1997, the date the FCRA amendments took effect, and September 
2003. This increase in the CPI and the requirement that any increase be 
rounded to the nearest fifty cents results in no change in the current 
maximum allowable charge of $9.00.
