Sec. 12. (a) Every credit union and every affiliate of a credit union shall be subject to examination in accordance with IC 28-11-3-1 by the department. A credit union shall be examined by the department as often as the department shall deem necessary. The department shall at all times be given free access to all of the books, papers, securities, and other sources of information, including audit reports and audit working papers for any such credit union. The director, the members of the department, and the supervisor in charge of the division shall have the power to subpoena documents and examine witnesses under oath pertaining to the business of the credit union. The department may accept an audit by a certified public accountant and govern its examination procedures and examination fees accordingly. At the close of each examination, a conference shall be conducted to disclose to the board of directors the findings of the examination.
(b) If a credit union contracts with an outside vendor to provide a service that would otherwise be undertaken internally by the credit union and be subject to the department's routine examination procedures, the person that provides the service to the credit union shall, at the request of the director, submit to an examination by the department. If the director determines that an examination under this subsection is necessary or desirable, the examination may be made at the expense of the person to be examined. If the person to be examined under this subsection refuses to permit the examination to be made, the director may order any credit union that receives services from the person refusing the examination to:
(1) discontinue receiving one (1) or more services from the person; or
(2) otherwise cease conducting business with the person.
