Extension: Rule 17a-8; SEC File No. 270-53; OMB Control No. 3235-
0092.

    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

Rule 17a-8--Financial Recordkeeping and Reporting of Currency and 
Foreign Transactions

    Rule 17a-8 (17 CFR 240.17a-8) under the Securities Exchange Act of 
1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (the ``Act'') requires brokers and dealers 
to make and keep certain reports and records concerning their currency 
and monetary instrument transactions. The requirements allow the 
Commission to ensure that brokers and dealers are in compliance with 
the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970 (``Bank 
Secrecy Act'') and with the Department of the Treasury regulations 
under that Act.
    The reports and records required under this rule initially are 
required under Department of the Treasury regulations, and additional 
burden hours and costs are not imposed by this rule.
    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.
    Comments should be directed to (1) 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 or by sending an e-mail to: 
David_Rostker@omb.eop.gov; and (2) R. Corey Booth, Director/Chief Information 

Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, C/O Shirley Martinson,

to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 
days of this notice.

     Dated: June 29, 2006.

 Assistant Secretary.
