Extension:
    Rule 17a-19 and Form X-17A-19

    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 approval of extension of the 
previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule 17a-
19 (17 CFR 240.17a-19) and Form X-17A-19 of the Securities Exchange Act 
of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
    Rule 17a-19 requires every national securities exchange and 
registered national securities association to file a Form X-17A-19 with 
the Commission and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation 
(``SIPC'') within 5 business days of the initiation, suspension, or 
termination of any member and, when terminating the membership interest 
of any member, to notify that member of its obligation to file 
financial reports as required by Exchange Act Rule 17a-5(b).\1\ There 
are currently a total of 10 national securities exchanges and 
registered national securities associations that are potential 
respondents under the rule.

    Commission staff anticipates that the national securities exchanges 
and registered national securities associations collectively will make 
408 total filings annually pursuant to Rule 17a-19 and that each filing 
will take approximately 15 minutes. The total reporting burden is 
estimated to be approximately 102 total annual hours.
    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.
