US Code:
29 USC 1108(b)
Name of Law: Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
The Department is amending PTE 75-1, Part V, to institute a new disclosure requirement. Additionally, the Department has updated the number of commercial banks and broker-dealers, as well as the wage costs due to increased labor costs and inflation. Furthermore, the Department has revised the additional time needed to maintain records for the financial institutions to be consistent with the exemption. In the previous information collection, the average hour burden was estimated to be 10 minutes per entity annually. In the current information collection, the average hour burden is estimated to be four hours per entity annually. As a result, the number of responses has decreased by 1,700 responses and the hour burden increased by 14,835 hours.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
