							       Legislative Committee

        The Legislative Committee of the Banking Law Section is focused on updating
members with respect to banking legislation and new laws in the banking, financial
services, consumer finance areas. Assists the Section in the formulation of legislative
policy by making recommendations on legislation. The committee analyzes the legal and
political implications of banking legislation on the membership.

The committee informs the section membership of important legislative issues and seek
their involvement in the review of legislation. Meets periodically to monitor legislative
events that are of importance and provide a forum for discussion of legislative issues
affecting banking law.

The Committee anticipates holding a program in the fall of 2007 to discuss Recent Action
in Trenton: Come and Meet the Key Legislators Involved in Banking Legislation.

The Committee is considering holding a "Day at the Capitol" event in Trenton to promote
dialogue and foster relationships with regulators and legislative representatives.
