The registration and reporting requirements of chapter 305 of the Government Code are not applicable, in the context of a bank examination, to responses to questions from bank examiners and discussions regarding loan quality. Nor are those requirements applicable to the submission of a charter application to the Banking Department of Texas or the submission of a notice of change in control. Further, those requirements do not apply to the provision of information intended to persuade the agency that the agency should take certain action in regard to the application or notice, as long as the information is intended to show compliance with standards of general applicability.
