  1  1    Section 1.  Section 537.3205, Code 1995, is amended by
  1  2 adding the following new subsection:
  1  3    NEW SUBSECTION.  6.  Notwithstanding subsections 1 through
  1  4 5, a creditor is not required to deliver or mail to the
  1  5 consumer a written disclosure of a change in the terms of an
  1  6 open-end credit account if the change involves a decrease in
  1  7 the rate of the finance charge, a decrease in a delinquency
  1  8 charge, or a decrease in an over-limit charge.  
  1  9                           EXPLANATION
  1 10    This bill provides that a creditor is not required to
  1 11 deliver or mail to the consumer a written disclosure of a
  1 12 change in the terms of an open-end credit account if the
  1 13 change involves a decrease in the rate of the finance charge,
  1 14 a decrease in a delinquency charge, or a decrease in an over-
  1 15 limit charge.  Section 537.3205 currently provides that a
  1 16 creditor may make a change in the terms of an open-end credit
  1 17 account applying to any balance incurred after the effective
  1 18 date of the change only if the creditor delivers or mails to
  1 19 the consumer a written disclosure of the change at least 60
  1 20 days before the effective date of the change, whether or not
  1 21 such change is authorized by a prior agreement.
