interested persons provide written 

submissions of their views, data, and 

arguments with respect to the issues

persons concerning whether the 

proposal is consistent with Section 

6(b)(5) or any other provision of the Act, 

and the rules and regulations 

thereunder. Although there do not

Rule 19b–4, any request for an 

opportunity to make an oral 

presentation.27

Commission, Office of FOIA Services,

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’’) is soliciting comments 

on the collection of information 

summarized below. The Commission 

plans to submit this existing collection 

of information to the Office of 

Management and Budget for extension 

and approval. 

Form CB (17 CFR 239.800) is a 

Document filed in connection with a 

tender offer for a foreign private issuer. 

This form is used to report an issuer 

tender offer conducted in compliance 

with Exchange Act Rule 13e–4(h)(8) (17 

CFR 240.13e–4(h)(8)) and a third-party 

tender offer conducted in compliance 

with Exchange Act Rule 14d–1(c) (17 

CFR 240.14d–1(c)). Form CB takes 

approximately 0.5 hours per response to 

prepare and is filed by approximately 58 

respondents annually. We estimate that 

25% of the 0.5 hours per response 

(0.125 hours) is prepared by the 

respondent for an annual reporting 

burden of 7 hours (0.125 hours per 

response × 58 responses). 

Written comments are invited on: (a) 

whether this proposed 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. Consideration will be given 

to comments and suggestions submitted 

in writing within 60 days of this 

publication by December 4, 2023. 

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 

control number. 

Please direct your written comment to 

David Bottom, Director/Chief 

Information Officer, Securities and 

Exchange Commission, c/o John 

Pezzullo, 100 F Street NE, Washington, 

DC 20549 or send an email to: PRA_
