(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

foreign issuers to register securities
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933

availability of such information. Form
F–3 takes approximately 157.84 hours
per response and is filed by
approximately 113 respondents. We
estimate that 25% of the 157.84 hours
per response (39.46 hours) is prepared
by the registrant for a total annual
reporting burden of 4,459 hours (39.46
hours per response × 113 responses).
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.

Rule 17a–6

Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(‘‘PRA’’) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) a request for extension of the
previously approved collection of
information provided for in Rule 17a–6
(17 CFR 240.17a–6) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.).
Rule 17a–6 permits national securities

associations, registered clearing
agencies, and the Municipal Securities
Rulemaking Board (‘‘MSRB’’)
(collectively, ‘‘SROs’’) to destroy or
convert to microfilm or other recording
media records maintained under Rule
17a–1, if they have filed a record
destruction plan with the Commission
and the Commission has declared such
plan effective.
There are currently 35 SROs: 24
national securities exchanges, 1 national
securities association, the MSRB, and 9
registered clearing agencies. Of the 35
SROs, only 2 SRO respondents have
filed a record destruction plan with the
Commission. The staff calculates that
the preparation and filing of a new
record destruction plan should take 160
hours. Further, any existing SRO record
destruction plans may require revision,
over time, in response to, for example,
changes in document retention
technology, which the Commission
estimates will take much less than the
160 hours estimated for a new plan. The
Commission estimates that each SRO
that has filed a destruction plan will
spend approximately 30 hours per year
making required revisions. Thus, the
total annual time burden is estimated to
be approximately 60 hours per year
based on two respondents (30 × 2). The
approximate internal compliance cost
per hour is $428, resulting in a total
internal cost of compliance for these
respondents of approximately $25,680
per year (60 hours at $428 per hour).
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
under the PRA unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
