78u–6(h)(2)(D)(i), ‘‘when necessary to

Securities Exchange Act] and to protect
investors.’’ Otherwise, such information
may be disclosed by the Commission
only in accordance with the provisions
of the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C.
552a, ‘‘unless and until required to be
disclosed to a defendant or respondent
in connection with a public proceeding
instituted by the Commission or any

an appropriate regulatory authority; a
self-regulatory organization; a State

Administrative Law Matters
The Commission finds, in accordance
with the Administrative Procedure Act
(‘‘APA’’) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(A)), that
this amendment relates solely to agency
organization, procedure, or practice and
does not relate to a substantive rule.
Accordingly, the provisions of the APA
regarding notice of the proposed
rulemaking, opportunities for public
participation, and publication of the
amendment prior to its effective date, 5
U.S.C. 553, are not applicable. For the
same reason, and because this
amendment does not substantively
affect the rights or obligations of nonagency parties, the provisions of the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act, 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(C), are not
applicable. Additionally, the provisions
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, which
apply only when notice and comment
are required by the APA or other law,
5 U.S.C. 603, are not applicable.
Further, because the amendment
imposes no new burdens on parties in
investigations, the Commission does not
believe it will have any anti-competitive
effects for purposes of Section 23(a)(2)
of the Securities Exchange Act, 15
U.S.C. 78w(a)(2). Finally, this
amendment does not contain any
collection of information requirements
as defined by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1980, as amended. Accordingly,
the amendment is effective July 7, 2011.

2011 and does not intend to consider
