SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[OMB Control No. 3235-0687]
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request; Extension: Rule 239
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, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget this request for extension of the previously approved
collection of information discussed below.
Rule 239 (17 CFR 230.239) provides exemptions under the Securities
Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.), the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939
(U.S.C. 77aaa et seq.) for security-based swaps issued by certain
clearing agencies satisfying certain conditions. The purpose of the
information required by Rule 239 is to make certain information about
security-based swaps that may be cleared by the registered or the
exempt clearing agencies available to eligible contract participants
and other market participants. We estimate that each registered or
exempt clearing agency
[[Page 11201]]
issuing security-based swaps in its function as a central counterparty
will spend approximately 2 hours each time it provides or update the
information in its agreements relating to security-based swaps or on
its website. We estimate that each registered or exempt clearing agency
will provide or update the information approximately 20 times per year.
In addition, we estimate that 75% of the 2 hours per response (1.5
hours) is prepared internally by the clearing agency for a total annual
reporting burden of 180 hours (1.5 hours per response x 20 times x 6
respondents).
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.
Written comments are invited on: (a) whether this collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the agency, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden
imposed by the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on
respondents, including through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information technology.
The public may view and comment on this information collection
