    NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

    Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

    Subsection 70C-8-102(1)(e) authorizes the department to adopt, amend, and repeal rules to supplement, interpret, or carry out the provisions of this title. This rule applies to all extensions of credit subject to Title 70C, Utah Consumer Credit Code, which furthers consumer understanding of credit transactions, prohibits certain unfair practices, and avoids duplication of laws and regulations pertaining to consumer credit between state and federal authorities.

    Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

    No supporting or opposing written comments have been received by the agency concerning this rule.

    Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

    The purpose for this rule is to distinguish variable or adjustable interest rates from other kinds of rate formulas or provisions, to specify what must be included in rate formulas represented to be variable or adjustable and to specify certain disclosure requirements under state and federal law applicable to variable or adjustable rate and other formulas; and therefore, it should be continued.
