III. Discussion
After careful review, the Commission
finds that the proposed rule change, as
amended, is consistent with the
requirements of the Act and the rules
and regulations thereunder applicable to
a national securities exchange.8 In
particular, the Commission finds that
the proposed rule change, as amended,
is consistent with section 6(b)(5) of the
Act,9 which requires, among other
things, that the rules of a national
securities exchange be designed to
prevent fraudulent and manipulative
acts and practices, to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, to remove
impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market
and a national market system and, in
general, to protect investors and the
public interest. In addition, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change, as amended, is consistent
with section 6(b)(6) of the Act,10 which
requires that the rules of the exchange
provide that its members and persons
associated with its members shall be
appropriately disciplined for violation
of the provisions of the Act, the rules
and regulations thereunder, or the rules
of the exchange, and with section 6(b)(7)
of Act,11 which requires that the rules
of the exchange provide a fair procedure
for the disciplining of members and
persons associated with members.
The Commission believes that the
proposed rule change should streamline
and expedite the hearing process by
having a permanent Hearing Officer and
pre-screened, qualified Hearing
Panelists, and by having the Hearing
Panel issue a final decision itself,
without having to go to the BCC for
review and approval. In addition, the
Commission notes that the Exchange
proposes to place restrictions on the
activities of the Hearing Officer, and to
require a Hearing Officer or Hearing
Panelist to remove himself from
consideration of a matter if he cannot
render a fair and impartial decision. The
Commission believes that these
measures should help to ensure to that
the Hearing Officer and Hearing
Panelists are completely neutral and
that their decisions are fair and
impartial. Furthermore, the Commission
believes that having a single Hearing
Officer preside over all hearings will

Commission has considered the proposed rule’s
impact on efficiency, competition, and capital
formation. 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).

increase the likelihood that more
uniform sanctions will be imposed for
similar misconduct by members, making
the Exchange’s disciplinary process
more fair.
The Commission finds good cause for
accelerating approval of the proposed
rule change, as amended by
Amendment No. 1, prior to the 30th day
after the date of publication of notice of
the filing in the Federal Register. The
Commission published the proposed
rule change for public comment on May
26, 2006 for a 15-day comment period
and received no comments on the
proposal. The Commission believes that
accelerated approval should expedite
the appointment of a hearing officer and
allow the Exchange to implement a
more efficient disciplinary process.12
IV. Conclusion
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
section 19(b)(2) of the Act,13 that the
proposed rule change (SR–Phlx–2005–
65), as amended, is approved.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated
authority.14

Secretary.
