SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: The Whistleblower Provision of
Section 23 of the Commodity Exchange
Act (OMB Control No. 3038–0082). This
is a request for extension of a currently
approved information collection.
Abstract: 17 CFR 165.3(a) requires the
submission of information to the
Commission on a Form TCR. The Form
TCR, ‘‘Tip, Complaint, or Referral,’’ and

about a complainant and elicit sufficient
information to determine whether the
conduct alleged suggests a violation of
the Commodity Exchange Act. 17 CFR
165.7(b)(1) requires the submission of
information to the Commission on a
Form WB–APP. The Form WB–APP,
‘‘Application for Award for Original
Information Provided Pursuant to
Section 23 of the Commodity Exchange
Act,’’ and the instructions thereto, are
designed to elicit sufficient information
to determine whether and to what
extent a claimant qualifies for a
whistleblower award.
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 OMB
control number.2 On November 24,
2020, the Commission published in the
Federal Register notice of the proposed
extension of this information collection
and provided 60 days for public
comment on the proposed extension, 85
FR 74995 (‘‘60-Day Notice’’). The
Commission received no relevant
comments.
Burden Statement: The respondent

be as follows:
Estimated Number of Respondents:
900 per year.
Estimated Average Burden Hours per
Respondent: 0.5 hour.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 450 hours.
Frequency of Collection: Once.
There are no capital costs or operating
and maintenance costs associated with
this collection.
