SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OTS may not conduct or sponsor an 
information collection, and respondents are not required to respond to 
an information collection, unless the information collection displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. As part of the approval process, we 
invite comments on the following information collection.
    Title of Proposal: Savings Loan Holding Company Application.
    OMB Number: 1550-0015.
    Form Numbers: H-(e).
    Description: Section 10(e) of the Home Owners' Loan Act, 12 U.S.C. 
1467a(e), and its implementing regulations provide that no company, or 
any director or officer of a savings and loan holding company, or any 
individual who owns, controls, or holds with power to vote (or holds 
proxies representing) more than 25 percent of the voting stock of a 
savings and loan holding company, shall acquire control of a savings 
association except upon receipt of written approval of OTS. While this 
prohibition and approval requirement applies to certain persons 
affiliated with a savings and loan holding company, a similar 
prohibition and approval requirement applies to other persons who seek 
to control a savings association. However, a transaction may be exempt.
    OTS analyzes each holding company application to determine whether 
the applicant meets the statutory criteria set forth in Section 10(e) 
of the Act to become a savings and loan holding company. The forms are 
reviewed for adequacy of answers to items and completeness in all 
material respects.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 65.
    Estimated Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Total Burden: 32,500 hours.
