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
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:17 Jan 22, 2008
Jkt 214001
(‘‘OMB’’) a request for extension of the
previously approved collection of
information discussed below.
The title for the collection of
information is ‘‘Rule 204–2’’ (17 CFR
275.204–2) under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80b–1).
Rule 204–2 requires SEC-registered
investment advisers to maintain copies
of certain books and records relating to
their advisory business. The collection
of information under rule 204–2 is
necessary for the Commission staff to
use in its examination and oversight
program. This collection of information
is mandatory. The respondents to the
collection of information are investment
advisers registered with the
Commission. As of August 31, 2007,
there were 10,787 SEC registered
advisers. Responses provided to the
Commission in the context of its
examination and oversight program are
generally kept confidential. The records
that an adviser must keep in accordance
with rule 204–2 must generally be
retained for not less than five years.
The Commission has estimated that
compliance with the requirements of the
rule imposes a total burden of
approximately 181.1541 hours for an
adviser. Based on our experience, the
Commission staff estimates a total
annual burden of 1,954,109 hours for
the collection of this 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
control number.
General comments regarding the
above information should be directed to
the following persons: (i) Desk Officer
for the Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, Room 10102,
New Executive Office Building,
Washington, DC 20503 or e-mail to:
Alexander_T._Hunt@omb.eop.gov and
(ii) R. Corey Booth, Director/Chief
Information Officer, Securities and
Exchange Commission, C/O Shirley
Martinson, 6432 General Green Way,
Alexandria, VA 22312, or send an
e-mail to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.
Comments must be submitted to OMB
within 30 days of this notice.
Dated: January 14, 2008.

Deputy Secretary.

Rule 237, SEC File No. 270–465, OMB
Control No. 3235–0528.
Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension and approval of
the collection of information discussed
below.
In Canada, as in the United States,
individuals can invest a portion of their
earnings in tax-deferred retirement
savings accounts (‘‘Canadian retirement
accounts’’). In cases where these
individuals move to the United States,
these participants (‘‘Canadian/U.S.
Participants’’ or ‘‘participants’’) may not
be able to manage their Canadian
retirement account investments. Most
securities and most investment
companies (‘‘funds’’) that are ‘‘qualified
investments’’ for Canadian retirement
accounts are not registered under the
U.S. securities laws. Those securities,
therefore, generally cannot be publicly
offered and sold in the United States
without violating the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of
1933 (‘‘Securities Act’’).1 As a result of
these registration requirements of the
U.S. securities laws, Canadian/U.S.
Participants, in the past, had not been
able to purchase or exchange securities
for their Canadian retirement accounts
as needed to meet their changing
investment goals or income needs.
In 2000, the Commission issued a rule
that enabled Canadian/U.S. Participants
to manage the assets in their Canadian
retirement accounts by providing relief
from the U.S. registration requirements
for offers of securities of foreign issuers
to Canadian/U.S. Participants and sales
to their accounts.2 Rule 237 under the
Securities Act 3 permits securities of
foreign issuers, including securities of
foreign funds, to be offered to Canadian/
U.S. Participants and sold to their
Canadian retirement accounts without
