      16a-6-105.   (UCCC) Administrative powers with respect to supervised financial organizations. (1) With respect to supervised financial organizations, the powers of examination and investigation (K.S.A. 16a-2-305 and K.S.A. 16a-6-106, and amendments thereto) and administrative enforcement (K.S.A. 16a-6-108, and amendments thereto) shall be exercised by the official or agency to whose supervision the organization is subject. Should a supervised financial organization become licensed hereunder, a report of that portion of each examination made by the supervisory official or agency of such organization relating to compliance with the provisions of chapter 16a of the Kansas Statutes Annotated shall be filed with the administrator. All other powers of the administrator under this act may be exercised by the administrator with respect to a supervised financial organization except that compliance with truth in lending shall be governed as set forth in subsection (2) of K.S.A. 16a-6-104, and amendments thereto.

      (2)   If the administrator receives a complaint or other information concerning noncompliance with this act by a supervised financial organization, the administrator shall inform the official or agency having supervisory authority over the organization concerned. The administrator may request information about supervised financial organizations from the officials or agencies supervising them. If such officials or agencies have cause to believe the licensee of any supervised financial organization subject to their supervision is subject to suspension or revocation for any reason stated in K.S.A. 16a-2-303, and amendments thereto, such official or agency shall notify the administrator and assist the administrator in the enforcement of this act.

      (3)   The administrator and any official or agency of this state having supervisory authority over a supervised financial organization are authorized and directed to consult and assist one another in maintaining compliance with the provisions of K.S.A. 16a-1-101 through 16a-9-102, and amendments thereto. They may jointly pursue investigations, prosecute suits, and take other official action, as they deem appropriate, if either of them otherwise is empowered to take the action.
