SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[OMB Control No. 3235-0206]
Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request; Extension: Rule 19d-1
Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange

Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736
Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC or ``Commission'') is submitting to the Office of
Management and Budget (``OMB'') this request for an extension of the
proposed collection of information in Rule 19d-1.
Rule 19d-1 prescribes the form and content of notices to be filed
with the Commission by self-regulatory organizations (``SROs'') for
which the Commission is the appropriate regulatory agency concerning
the following final SRO actions: (1) disciplinary actions with respect
to any person; (2) denial, bar, prohibition, or limitation of
membership, participation or association with a member or of access to
services offered by an SRO or member thereof; (3) summarily suspending
a member, participant, or person associated with a member, or summarily
limiting or prohibiting any persons with respect to access to or
services offered by the SRO or a member thereof; and (4) delisting a
security.
The Rule enables the Commission to obtain reports from the SROs
containing information regarding SRO determinations to delist a
security, discipline members or associated persons of members, deny
membership or participation or association with a member, and similar
adjudicated findings. The Rule requires that such actions be promptly
reported to the Commission. The Rule also requires that the reports and
notices supply sufficient information regarding the background, factual
basis and issues involved in the proceeding to enable the Commission:
(1) to determine whether the matter should be called up for review on
the Commission's own motion; and (2) to ascertain generally whether the
SRO has adequately carried out its responsibilities under the Exchange
Act.
It is estimated that approximately eighteen respondents will
utilize this application procedure annually, and will file
approximately 850 submissions, based upon recent data. The Commission
estimates that the average number of hours necessary to comply with the
requirements of Rule 19d-1 for each submission is 1 hour. The total
annual burden for all respondents is thus 850 hours. The Commission
estimates that the internal compliance cost per respondent is
approximately $344 per response. The annual internal cost of compliance
for all respondents is thus approximately $292,400 (17 respondents x 50
responses x $344 per response).
The filing of notices pursuant to Rule 19d-1 is mandatory for the
SROs but does not require the collection of confidential information.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB Control Number.
Written comments are invited on: (a) whether this proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the SEC, including whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the SEC's estimate of the burden
imposed by the proposed collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and the assumptions used; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated,
electronic collection techniques or other forms of information
technology.
The public may view and comment on this information collection
request at: https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAViewICR?ref_nbr=202504-3235-004 or email comment to
[email protected] within 30 days of the day
after publication of this notice, by September 8, 2025.
Dated: August 4, 2025.
Sherry R. Haywood,
Assistant Secretary.
