DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY

Office of the Comptroller of the Currency


Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request

AGENCY: Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), Treasury.

ACTION: Submission for OMB review; comment request.

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

SUMMARY: The OCC, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork 
and respondent burden, invites the general public and other Federal 
agencies to take this opportunity to comment on a continuing 
information collection, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995. The OCC may not conduct or sponsor, and a respondent is not 
required to respond to, an information collection that has been 
extended, revised, or implemented unless it displays a currently valid 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. Currently, the 
OCC is soliciting comments concerning an extension, without change, of 
an information collection titled (MA)--Securities Exchange Act 
Disclosure Rules (12 CFR 11). The OCC also gives notice that it has 
sent the information collection to OMB for review.

DATES: You should submit your written comments to both OCC and the OMB 
Reviewer by March 23, 2000.

ADDRESSES: You should send your written comments to the Communications 
Division, Attention: 1557-0106, Third Floor, Office of the Comptroller 
of the Currency, 250 E Street, SW, Washington, DC 20219. In addition, 
you can send comments by facsimile transmission to (202) 874-5274, or 
by electronic mail to [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: You may request additional 
information, a copy of the collection, or a copy of the supporting 
documentation submitted to OMB by contacting Jessie Dunaway or Camille 
Dixon, (202) 874-5090, Legislative and Regulatory Activities Division

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC is proposing to extend OMB approval 
of the following information collection:
    Title: (MA)--Securities Exchange Act Disclosure Rules (12 CFR 11).
    OMB Number: 1557-0106.

involves no change to the regulation or to the information collections 
embodied in the regulation. The OCC requests only that OMB renew its 
approval of the information collections in the current regulation.
    This information collection covers the OCC's Securities Exchange 
Act Disclosure Rules (12 CFR Part 11) which require national banks to 
make public disclosures and file with the OCC certain Securities 
Exchange Commission forms. Publicly-owned national banks must make 
disclosures and filings to comply with applicable banking and 
securities law and regulatory requirements. The OCC reviews the 
information to ensure that it complies with Federal law and makes 
public all information required to be filed. Investors, depositors, and 
the public use the information to make informed investment decisions.
    Type of Review: Extension, without change, of a currently approved 
collection.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit; Individuals or 
households.
