SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC is requesting OMB approval of the following information collection, which was previously approved under the Office of Thrift Supervision’s OMB Control No. 1550–0059. Title III of The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, Public Law 111–203, 124 Stat. 1376 (2010) (DoddFrank Act) transferred the powers, authorities, rights and duties of the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) to other banking agencies, including the OCC. In addition, Dodd-Frank requires the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) to promulgate regulations governing capital distributions. OTS Control No. 1550– 0059 was, therefore, transferred to the FRB under OMB Control No. 7100– 0339. This information collection replaces the collection transferred to the FRB. The OCC solicited comments on this collection on August 23, 2011 (76 FR 52735). No comments were received. Comments continue to be solicited on: a. Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the OCC; b. The accuracy of OCC’s estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection; c. Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; d. Ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on respondents, including through the use of information technology. We will summarize the comments that we receive and include them in our VerDate Mar<15>2010 21:29 Feb 09, 2012 Jkt 226001 request for OMB approval. All comments will become a matter of public record. Title of Collection: Capital Distribution. OMB Control Number: 1557–NEW. Description: Under 12 CFR 163.143, the OCC will review the information to determine whether the request of Federal savings associations is in accordance with existing statutory and regulatory criteria. The information also provides the OCC with a mechanism for monitoring capital distributions since distributions may reduce an institution’s capital levels and may, in some instances, impact the institution adversely. Type of Review: New collection. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit. Estimated Number of Respondents: 495. Estimated Frequency of Response: On occasion. Estimated Total Burden: 546 hours.
