SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

 
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon written request, copies available from: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC 
20549-0213.

XBRL Voluntary Program Questionnaire.
    OMB Control No. 3235-NEW; SEC File No. 270-577.

    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 request to approve the collection of information discussed 
below.
    The title of the questionnaire is ``XBRL Voluntary Program 
Questionnaire.''
    The XBRL Voluntary Program Questionnaire consists mainly of 
questions based on the respondent's experience with submitting 
eXtensible Business Reporting Language (``XBRL'') tagged data to the 
Commission on a voluntary basis as a supplemental exhibit to specified 
filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et 
seq.) and Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.).
    The Commission needs the information to learn about the voluntary 
program from the participant perspective. Responses to the 
questionnaire are voluntary and will be publicly available. The 
Commission plans to use the information to help it assess the 
feasibility and desirability of using tagged data on a more widespread 
and, possibly, mandated, basis in the future. In addition, the 
information may

[[Page 46112]]

also be used by the Commission or its staff in connection with public 
analyses of the responses. The likely respondents to the questionnaire 
are the participants in the voluntary program.
    We estimate that each of 80 respondents will respond once and take 
4 hours per response for a total reporting burden of 320 hours.
    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.
    Written 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 or send an e-mail to 
David_Rostker@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) R. Corey Booth, Director/Chief 

Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Shirley 
Martinson, 6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, Virginia 22312; or send 
an e-mail to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. Comments must be submitted to OMB 
within 30 days of this notice.

    Dated: August 9, 2007.
Florence E. Harmon,
Deputy Secretary.
