SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

Proposed Collection; Comment 

Request 

Upon Written Request, Copies Available 

From: Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of Filings and 

Information Services, Washington, DC 

20549. 

Extension: Rule 31; SEC File No. 270–537; 

OMB Control No. 3235–0597. 

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. 

Section 31 (17 CFR 240.31) of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 

U.S.C. 78ee) requires the Commission to 

collect fees and assessments from 

national securities exchanges and 

national securities associations 

(collectively, ‘‘self-regulatory 

organizations’’ or ‘‘SROs’’) based on the 

volume of their securities transactions. 

To collect the proper amounts, the 

Commission adopted Rule 31 and Form 

R31 under the Exchange Act whereby 

the SROs must report to the 

Commission the volume of their 

securities transaction and the 

Commission, based on that data, 

calculates the amount of fees and 

assessments that the SROs owe pursuant 

to Section 31. Rule 31 and Form R31 

require the SROs to provide this data on 

a monthly basis. 

The Commission estimates that each 

respondent makes approximately 12 

such filings on an annual basis at an 

average hourly burden of approximately 

1.6 hours per response. Currently, 15 

respondents (14 national securities 

exchanges and one national securities 

association) are subject to the collection 

of information requirements of Rule 31. 

The Commission estimates that the total 

burden for all respondents is 288 hours 

(12 filings/respondent per year × 1.6 

hours/filing × 15 respondents) per year. 

Written comments are invited on: (a) 

Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate 

of the burden of the proposed collection 

of information; (c) ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be 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. 

Comments regarding the above 

information should be directed to the 

following persons: (i) Desk Officer for 

the Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of Information and
