Survey on Reciprocal Subpoena

Enforcement: SEC File No. 270–479,

OMB Control No. 3235–new.

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’’) has submitted to the

Office of Management and Budget a

21494 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 78 / Friday, April 21, 2000 / Notices

request to approve the collection of

information discussed below.

The survey is called the Securities

and Exchange Commission Survey on

Reciprocal Subpoena Enforcement. The

staff created the survey pursuant to a

Congressional directive in the Securities

Litigation Uniform Standards Act of

1998 (‘‘1998 Act’’). The 1998 Act

requires the Commission, in

consultation with state securities

commissions (or similar agencies) to

‘‘seek to encourage the adoption of State

laws providing for reciprocal

enforcement by State securities

commissions of subpoenas issued by

another State securities commission.

* * *.’’ The 1998 Act further requires

the SEC to submit a report to Congress

by November 2000 which identifies the

states that have adopted such laws,

describes the actions the Commission

and the state commissions have taken to

promote such laws, and identifies any

further actions the Commission

recommends for such purposes.

The survey seeks information

regarding (1) the states’ laws authorizing

providing assistance to other states with

subpoenas, (2) the states’ experiences in

seeking assistance from other states with

their subpoenas, (3) the states’

experiences in requesting assistance

from other states with their subpoenas

and (4) each state’s proposals and

suggestions regarding reciprocal

subpoena enforcement. The

Commission will use the information

gathered in the survey to write the

report to Congress.

The survey will be sent to all of the

states, the District of Columbia and

Puerto Rico. It is estimated that there

will be approximately 52 respondents to

the survey and that each full response

will take approximately 30 minutes.

Thus, the total reporting burden of the

survey will be about 26 hours. The

survey is voluntary and may be

completed at the option of the recipient.

Responses will not be kept confidential.

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.

General 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

Regulatory Affairs, Office of

Management and Budget, Room 10102,

New Executive Office Building,

Washington, DC 20503; and (ii) Michael

E. Bartell, Associate Executive Director,

Office of Information Technology,
