such transactions from sample data

collected in subsequent years. The

information obtained from the survey is

critically needed for tracking

international transactions in new,

growing, and volatile categories of

services. The data are necessary for

compiling monthly estimates of U.S.

international transactions in goods and

services, the U.S. balance of payments,

and the national income and product

accounts. The data also will support

U.S. trade policy initiatives, including

trade negotiations.

To close gaps in existing coverage of

international services transactions, the

Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) is

considering adding several categories of

services not included in the previous

(1991) BE–20 survey. Specifically, BEA

is considering adding coverage of

purchases (payments) and sales

(receipts) of commissions by

unaffiliated sales agents, purchases (but

not sales) of financial services, and sales

(but not purchases) of merchanting

services. BEA is also considering adding

a broad category for purchases and sales

of ‘‘other’’ business, professional, and

technical services; this category would

likely cover language-translation

services, security services, collection

services, actuarial services, salvage

services, certain waste cleanup services,

and, possibly, other specified services.

II. Method of Collection

The survey will be sent to potential

respondents in January 1997, and

responses are due on March 31, 1997.

All U.S. persons who, during 1996, had

more that $500,000 of purchases from,

or sales to, unaffiliated foreign persons

in a covered service must report data.

U.S. persons who receive a copy of the

survey and who had purchases and

sales transactions in a covered service

with unaffiliated foreign persons of

$500,000 or less may voluntarily report

the data, or they must file an exemption

claim.

III. Data

Form Number: BE–20.

Type of Review: Regular submission.

Affected Public: Businesses,

government agencies, or others engaging

in international transactions in covered

services.

estimated hourly cost of $30).

IV. Request for Comments

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 has practical

utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency’s

estimate of the burden (including hours

and cost of the proposed collection of

information; (c) ways to enhance the

quality, utility, and clarity of the

information to be colleted; and (d) ways

to minimize the burden of the collection

of information on respondents,

including through the use of automated

information technology.

Comments submitted in response to

this notice will be summarized and/or

included in the request for OMB

approval of this information collection;

they also will become a matter of public

record.
