SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

17 CFR Part 240

[Release No. 34-34245; File No. S7-6-94]
RIN 3235-AF84, 3235 AG12


Confirmation of Securities Transactions--Extension of Comment 
Period

AGENCY: Securities and Exchange Commission.

ACTION: Extension of comment period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Securities and Exchange Commission is extending the public 
comment period from June 15, 1994, to July 15, 1994, for proposed 
amendments to Rule 10b-10 and a new rule, Rule 15c2-13, which would 
require brokers, dealers, and municipal securities dealers to make 
certain disclosures on their customer confirmations.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before July 15, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be submitted in triplicate to Jonathan G. 
Katz, Secretary, Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 Fifth Street 
NW., Washington, DC 20549. All comment letters should refer to File No. 
S7-6-94. All comments received will be available for public inspection 
and copying at the Commission's Public Reference Room, 450 Fifth Street 
NW., Washington, DC 20549.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: C. Dirk Peterson, Senior Counsel, 
(202) 942-0073, Securities and Exchange Commission, Division of Market 
Regulation, 450 Fifth Street NW., Washington, DC 20549.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 9, 1994, the Commission proposed 
for public comment amendments to Rule 10b-10 and a new rule, Rule 15c2-
13 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Securities Exchange Act 
Release No. 33743, 59 FR 12767). Those proposals expanded the 
information that brokers, dealers, and municipal securities would be 
required to disclose on a customer confirmation. The proposals are 
designed to aid investors in monitoring their securities transactions 
and update the Commission's confirmation requirements to reflect 
changes in the securities markets.
    At the time these proposals were published, the Commission 
established a 90-day comment period that expired on June 15, 1994. The 
Commission has received several requests from interested persons to 
extend the comment period. In light of the complex issues raised by 
these proposals and the need to solicit the views of as many persons 
who will be affected by the proposals as possible, the Commission is 
extending the comment period 30 days. Accordingly, the comment period 
is extended to July 15, 1994.

    Dated: June 22, 1994.

    By the Commission.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
