SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[OMB Control No. 3235-0288]
Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request; Extension: Form 20-F
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 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and
Exchange Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (``OMB'') this request for extension of the
previously approved collection of information discussed below.
Form 20-F (17 CFR 249.220f) is used by foreign private issuers to
register securities pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (``Exchange Act'') and to file annual or transition reports
pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The information
collected by Form 20-F is intended to provide investors with material
information needed to make informed investment decisions. The
information collected by Form 20-F is mandatory, and Form 20-F filings
are publicly available on the Commission's Electronic Data Gathering,
Analysis, and Retrieval (``EDGAR'') system. We estimate that Form 20-F
is filed once per year by approximately 1,029 respondents, for a total
of approximately 1,029 responses annually. We estimate that respondents
incur 660.89 burden hours per Form 20-F response, for a total annual
reporting burden of 680,056 hours (660.89 hours per response x 1,029
responses). We estimate that respondents incur $1,194,666.92 cost
burden per Form 20-F, for a total annual cost of $1,229,312,261
($1,194,666.92 cost per response x 1,029 responses).
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.
