Bars, or Limitations Respecting Membership, Association, or Access to 
Services, and Summary Suspensions. The Commission plans to submit this 
existing collection of information to the Office of Management and 
Budget for extension and approval.
    Rule 19d-1 (``Rule'') under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (17 
U.S.C. 78a et seq.) 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 sanctions 
(including summary suspensions); (2) denials of membership, 
participation or association with a member; and (3) prohibitions or 
limitations on access to SRO services.
    The Rule enables the Commission to obtain reports from the SROs 
containing information regarding SRO determinations to 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 10 respondents will utilize this application 
procedure annually, with a total burden of 1,175 hours, based upon past 
submissions. This figure is based on 10 respondents, spending

submission is approximately $101. Therefore, the total cost of 
compliance for all the respondents is $118,675. (10 respondents x 235 
responses per respondent x .5 hrs per response x $101 per hour).
