We emphasize that the above requirements are only what, at a minimum, must be included in each proposal. The Bureau will evaluate proposals by balancing a number of factors, which include the criteria listed above (in particular, the entity’s qualifications, plans for operation of the clearinghouse, and amount of time to become operational) as well as an overall assessment of the particulars of each entity’s proposal. Once selected, a clearinghouse must operate in accordance with the Commission’s rules. Accordingly, any entity proposing to serve as a clearinghouse is expected to be familiar with the applicable Commission rules, policies, and procedures. Filing instructions.

General description of report: This information collection is mandatory, pursuant to authority contained in the following statutes: 12 U.S.C. 248(a)(1), 324, 334, 625, 1844(c), 3105(c)(2), and 3106(a). The obligation to file a Suspicious Activity Report by Depository Institutions (SAR) is set forth in the Federal Reserve’s rules, and is mandatory (12 CFR 208.62(c) (state member banks), 12 CFR 225.4(f) (entities subject to the Bank Holding Company Act), 12 CFR 211.5(k) (Edge and agreement corporations), and 12 CFR 211.24(f) (branches, agencies, and representative offices of foreign banks)). Section 5318(g)(2)(a)(ii) of Title 31 prohibits an officer or employee of the federal government from disclosing the existence of a SAR to anyone involved in the transaction, and section 5319 of Title 31 provides that all reports, including SARs filed thereunder, are exempt from disclosure under Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The information collected on a SAR is covered by exemptions three and seven of the FOIA (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(3)(7)) and exemption two of the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(2)).

To fulfill these requirements, supervised banking organizations file SARs. Law enforcement agencies use the information submitted on the reporting form to initiate investigations and the Federal Reserve uses the information in the examination and oversight of supervised institutions. Current Actions: On February 17, 2006, the federal banking agencies and FinCEN published a joint Federal Register notice (71 FR 8640) seeking comment on proposed revisions to the existing SAR. The agencies proposed several revisions to the reporting form and instructions in order to enhance clarity, allow for joint filing of SARs, and to improve the usefulness of the SAR to law enforcement. The agencies collectively received twenty-three comment letters. The commenters raised several minor issues and provided E:\FR\FM\05JYN1.SGM 05JYN1
