SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

 
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Filings and Information Services, Washington, DC 
20549.

Extension: Rule 15c1-7; SEC File No. 270-146; OMB Control No. 3235-
0134.

    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.
    Rule 15c1-7 (17 CFR 240.15c1-7) under the Securities Exchange Act 
of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) provides that any act of a broker-
dealer designed to effect securities transactions with or for a 
customer account over which the broker-dealer (directly or through an 
agent or employee) has discretion will be considered a fraudulent, 
manipulative, or deceptive practice under the Federal securities laws, 
unless a record is made of the transaction immediately by the broker-
dealer. The record must include (a) the name of the customer, (b) the 
name, amount, and price of the security, and (c) the date and time when 
such transaction took place. The Commission estimates that 500 
respondents collect information annually under Rule 15c1-7 and that 
approximately 33,333 hours would be required annually for these 
collections.
    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 estimated burden hours should be 
directed to the 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. Any comments concerning the accuracy of the 

estimated average burden hours for compliance with Commission rules and 
forms should be directed to R. Corey Booth, Director/Chief Information 
Officer, Office of Information Technology, Securities and Exchange 
Commission, 100 F Street, NE., Washington, DC 20549. Comments must be 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget within 30 days of this 
notice.

    Dated: February 27, 2006.
Nancy M. Morris,
Secretary.
