Alternative examination or report - Failure to make and transmit or publish report - Certificate and bylaw forms - Annual financial report. A. A regular examination of credit unions organized under the laws of this state shall be made by or under the supervision of the Administrator appointed by the State Banking Commissioner. The Administrator shall investigate and examine credit unions organized under Section 2001 et seq. of this title at least every eighteen (18) months, or more often if the Administrator and the State Banking Commissioner deem it necessary. For the purpose of making such examinations, examiners shall have full access to all books, papers, securities, records and other sources of information under the control of credit unions. B. In lieu of making an examination of a credit union, an examination or audit report of the condition of the credit union made by the National Credit Union Administration may be accepted by the Administrator. C. Upon receipt by the credit union or any officer thereof, the report of examination shall be submitted by the officer receiving it to the board of directors and the supervisory committee for review at the next meeting of the board and duly noted in the minutes of the board in such form and in such manner as may be prescribed and directed by the Commissioner. D. Credit unions shall report to the Administrator at least semiannually or upon request by the Administrator on forms supplied for that purpose. Every credit union which fails to make and transmit or to publish any report required within the discretion of the Administrator shall be liable for an administrative violation and subject to a fine not to exceed Five Dollars ($5.00) for each day, after the period respectively therein mentioned, that the credit union delays to make and transmit its report or its proof of publication. Whenever any credit union delays or refuses to pay the fine herein imposed for a failure to make and transmit or to publish a report, the Commissioner is hereby authorized to maintain an action in the name of the state against the delinquent credit union for the recovery of such fine, and all sums collected by such action shall be paid into the State Treasury to be credited to the General Revenue Fund. E. In order to simplify the organization of credit unions, the Administrator shall cause to be prepared a form of organization certificate which shall be used by credit unions organized hereunder and a form of bylaws consistent with Section 2001 et seq. of this title, which may be used by credit union incorporators and shall be supplied upon request. F. The Administrator shall prepare a report each year showing the financial condition of all credit unions under the supervision of the Administrator as of December 31 of the preceding year. The report shall be published in the annual report of the Commissioner, which shall be a public document and shall include such other matters as the Commissioner deems advisable.
