SUMMARY
Synopsis of Bill
.
Senate Memorial 1 requests that a study group be formed to study the extent of any existing or
potential problems under present unregulated status of the loan originating industry, and that the
working group report its findings and recommendations for proposed legislation to the interim
legislative Mortgage Authority Act Oversight Committee by no later than October 1, 2006. The
study group is to be composed of one person from each of the following:
New Mexico Mortgage Lenders Association,
New Mexico Financial Services Association,
New Mexico Realtors Association,
New Mexico Manufactured Housing Association,
Consumer Protection Division of the Attorney Generals Office, and
Financial Institutions Division of the Regulation and Licensing Department.
Copies of this memorial are to be transmitted to each of the participating organizations.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS
The bill contains no appropriation. As has been done with other similar studies, it is assumed
that each participating organization will absorb costs associated with the study within their exist-
ing budgets.
