Title 12 › Chapter 53— WALL STREET REFORM AND CONSUMER PROTECTION › Subchapter V— BUREAU OF CONSUMER FINANCIAL PROTECTION › Part F— Transfer of Functions and Personnel; Transitional Provisions › § 5582
The Secretary must pick one calendar date for moving certain consumer financial functions to the new Bureau. The Secretary must decide that date within 60 days after July 21, 2010, after talking with several federal financial regulators and with housing and budget officials, and must announce the chosen date in the Federal Register. The chosen transfer date must fall no sooner than 180 days and no later than 12 months after July 21, 2010. The Secretary may change the date (after consulting the same officials) but must announce any change. If more time is needed, the Secretary can set a date past 12 months only by sending Congress a written finding, an explanation, and a plan; the date cannot be later than 18 months after July 21, 2010.
