Correction: Role of Credit Union Council

 

In the last issue of Vision, we incorrectly noted the role of the Credit Union Council is to supervise and regulate credit unions. The role of the Credit Union Council is to serve as an advisor to the administrator on issues and needs of credit unions.

We apologize for the oversight.
