SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[SEC File No. 270-21, OMB Control No. 3235-0025]
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request; Extension: Rule 30e-1
Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736
Notice is hereby given that, under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (``Paperwork Reduction Act''), the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the ``Commission'') has submitted
to the Office of Management and Budget (``OMB'') a request for
extension of the previously approved collection of information
discussed below.
Rule 30e-1 (17 CFR 270.30e-1) under the Investment Company Act of
1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.) (``Investment Company Act'') generally
requires a registered investment company (``fund'') to transmit to its
shareholders, at least semi-annually, reports containing the
information that is required to be included in such reports by the
fund's registration statement form under the Investment Company Act.
The purpose of the collection of information required by rule 30e-1 is
to provide fund shareholders with current information about the
operation of their funds in accordance with Section 30 of the
Investment Company Act.
Approximately 2,490 funds, with a total of approximately 10,750
portfolios, respond to rule 30e-1 annually. Based on conversations with
fund representatives, we estimate that it takes approximately 84 hours
to comply with the collection of information associated with rule 30e-1
per portfolio. This time is spent, for example, preparing, reviewing,
and certifying the reports. Accordingly, we calculate the total
estimated annual internal burden of responding to rule 30e-1 to be
approximately 903,000 hours (84 hours x 10,750 portfolios). In addition
to the burden hours, based on conversations with fund representatives,
we estimate that the total cost burden of compliance with the
information collection requirements of rule 30e-1 is approximately
$31,061 per portfolio. This includes, for example, the costs for funds
to prepare, print, and mail the reports. Accordingly, we calculate the
total external cost burden associated with rule 30e-1 to be
approximately $333,905,750.
Estimates of the average burden hours are made solely for the
purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act and are not derived from a
comprehensive or even representative survey or study of the costs of
Commission rules and forms. The collection of information under rule
30e-1 is mandatory. The information provided under rule 30e-1 will not
be kept confidential. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a
person is not required to respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

collection at the following website: <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov">www.reginfo.gov</a>. Find this
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice
by August 30, 2023 to (i) <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#420f001a6c0d0f006c0d0b10036c1107011d262731291d2d24242b212730022d2f206c272d326c252d34"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="8ec3ccd6a0c1c3cca0c1c7dccfa0ddcbcdd1eaebfde5d1e1e8e8e7edebfccee1e3eca0ebe1fea0e9e1f8">[email protected]</span></a> and
