General description of report: This

information collection is mandatory (12

U.S.C. 1844(b) and (c)). Confidential

treatment is not routinely given to the

information in this report. However,

confidential treatment for the report

information can be requested, in whole

or part, in accordance with the

instructions to the form.

Abstract: The annual FR Y-6 report

provides structure information that

includes an organizational chart and

information about shareholders that

meet certain criteria as well as

information on the identity, percentage

ownership, and business interests of

principal shareholders, directors, and

executive officers. The report enables

the Federal Reserve to monitor bank

holding company operations and to

ensure that the operations are

conducted in a safe and sound manner

and are in compliance with the

provisions of the Bank Holding

Company Act and Regulation Y (12

C.F.R. 225).

On March 2, 1998, the Board issued

for public comment proposed revisions

to the FR Y-6 report (63 FR 10224). The

comment period expired on May 1,

1998. The Board proposed to revise the

reporting requirements of the item

providing information on directors and

officers (report item 4) to eliminate the

reporting of the number of voting

securities owned, controlled or held

with the power to vote by principal

shareholders, officers, directors or other

individuals in the bank holding

company exercising similar functions.

Respondents would still be required to

disclose the percentage of each class of

voting securities owned, controlled or

held with the power to vote by such

individuals. Board staff also propose to

add lines to the report cover page and

the supplemental cover page to disclose

holding company physical locations,

and to add an appendix to provide an

example of an accurately completed FR

Y-6 to assist respondents in completing

this free-form report.

The Board received comment letters

from five consulting firms. Each

commenter objected to the proposed

revision to eliminate the reporting of the

number of voting securities owned,

controlled or held with the power to

vote by principal shareholders, officers,

directors or other individuals in the

bank holding companies exercising

similar functions. The commenters

generally stated that this information

provides a measure of an officer or a

director’s commitment to the safety and

soundness of the holding company.

Board staff contacted commenters and

discovered that they did not realize that

respondents will still be required to

disclose the percentage of each class of

voting securities owned, controlled or

held with the power to vote by such

individuals. The commenters indicated

that continued collection of this item

addresses their concerns. The Board

believes that the requirement to only

provide the percentage of voting shares

held will still provide the Federal

Reserve with adequate regulatory

information. The Board approved the

information collection as initially

proposed.

System, May 29, 1998.

Deputy Secretary of the Board.

Federal Supply Service; Elimination of

Move Management Services

Provisions From, and Revisions to the

General Transportation Provisions of,

the General Services Administration’s

(GSA’s) Centralized Household Goods

Traffic Management Program (CHAMP)

AGENCY: Federal Supply Service, GSA.

ACTION: Notice of proposed program

changes for comment.

SUMMARY: On December 4, 1997, GSA

published for comment in the Federal

Register (62 FR 64225) a notice of

proposed changes to the 1997

Household Goods Tender of Service

(HTOS) providing for licensed broker

and direct move management services

provider participation in CHAMP. After

having carefully considered the

comments provided and weighed

potential ramifications of the new

provisions, we have decided not to

implement the provisions published on

December 4th. Instead, we are

eliminating move management services

provisions from the HTOS and

including under its general

transportation provisions those

activities currently defined as move

management services that are inherent

in a carrier’s daily operations. The

HTOS will be revised accordingly and

published for comment in a forthcoming

Federal Register notice with a planned

effective date coinciding with expiration

of the current rates on October 31, 1998.

Federal agencies will have the

opportunity to obtain broker services

through the Governmentwide Employee

Relocation Services Schedule. Under

this proposed procurement approach,

brokers will be restricted to using

carriers participating in GSA’s HTOS

program. To ensure that a carrier which

transports a brokered shipment is fairly

compensated for its services, we are

proposing that carriers have the

opportunity to file a brokered shipment

rate in addition to the general

transportation rate under GSA’s next

Request For Offers.

DATES: Please submit your comments by

August 3, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Mail comments to the

Travel and Transportation Management

Division (FBX), General Services

Administration, Washington, DC 20406,

Attn: Federal Register Notice. GSA will

consider your comments prior to

finalizing the revised HTOS provisions.
