SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

PRA, Federal agencies must obtain 

approval from the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) for each collection of 

information they conduct or sponsor. 

‘‘Collection of information’’is defined in 

44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) 

and includes agency requests or 

requirements that members of the public 

submit reports, keep records, or provide 

information to a third party. Section 

3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, 44 U.S.C. 

3506(c)(2)(A), requires Federal agencies 

to provide a 60-day notice in the 

Federal Register concerning each 

proposed collection of information, 

including each proposed extension of an 

existing collection of information, 

before submitting the collection to OMB 

for approval. To comply with this 

requirement, the CFTC is publishing 

notice of the proposed collection of 

information listed below. 

With respect to the following 

collection of information, the CFTC 

invites comments on: 

• Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information will have a practical use; 

• The accuracy of the Commission’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; 

• Ways to enhance the quality, 

usefulness, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and 

• Ways to minimize the burden of 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of responses. 

Practice by Former Members and 

Employees of the Commission, OBM 

Control Number 3038–0025—Extension 

Commission Rule 140.735–6 governs 

the practice before the Commission of 

former members and employees of the 

Commission and is intended to ensure 

that the Commission is aware of any

employees who are employed or 

retained to represent any person before 

the Commission within two years of the 

termination of their CFTC employment 

to file a brief written statement with the 

Commission’s Office of General 

Counsel. The proposed rule was 

promulgated pursuant to the 

Commission’s rulemaking authority 

contained in Section 8a(5) of the 

Commodity Exchange Act, 7 U.S.C. 

12a(5) (1994). 

The Commission estimates the burden
