Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 168 / Wednesday, August 29, 2012 / Notices
249.100) under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.)
(‘‘Exchange Act’’). The Commission
plans to submit this existing collection
of information to the Office of
Management and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) for
extension and approval.
Rule 17f–1(c) (17 CFR 240.17f–1(c))
requires approximately 26,000 entities
in the securities industry to report lost,
stolen, missing, or counterfeit securities
to a central database. Form X–17F–1A
(17 CFR 249.100) facilitates the accurate
reporting and precise and immediate
data entry into the central database.
Reporting to the central database fulfills
a statutory requirement that reporting
institutions report and inquire about
missing, lost, counterfeit, or stolen
securities. Reporting to the central
database also allows reporting
institutions to gain access to the
database that stores information for the
Lost and Stolen Securities Program.
We estimate that 26,000 reporting
institutions will report that securities
are either missing, lost, counterfeit, or
stolen annually and that each reporting
institution will submit this report 50
times each year. The staff estimates that
the average amount of time necessary to
comply with Rule 17f–1(c) and Form X–
17F–1A is five minutes. The total
burden is 108,333 hours annually for
respondents (26,000 times 50 times 5
divided by 60).
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the proposed collection
of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information on respondents; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Consideration will be given to
comments and suggestions submitted in
writing within 60 days of this
publication.
The Commission may not conduct or
sponsor a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid
control number. No person shall be
subject to any penalty for failing to
comply with a collection of information
subject to the PRA that does not display
a valid Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) control number.

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (‘‘Paperwork
Reduction Act’’), the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collection of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit this existing collection
of information to the Office of
Management and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) for
extension and approval.
As part of our evaluation of the
potential of interactive data tagging
technology, the Commission permits
registered investment companies
(‘‘funds’’) to submit on a voluntary basis
specified financial statement and
portfolio holdings disclosure tagged in
eXtensible Business Reporting Language
(‘‘XBRL’’) format as an exhibit to certain
filings on the Commission’s Electronic
Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval
System (‘‘EDGAR’’). The current
voluntary program permits any fund to
participate merely by submitting a
tagged exhibit in the required manner.
These exhibits are publicly available but
are considered furnished rather than
filed. The purpose of the collection of
information is to help evaluate the
usefulness of data tagging and XBRL to
registrants, investors, the Commission,
and the marketplace.
We estimate that no funds participate
in the voluntary program each year.
This information collection, therefore,
imposes no time burden; however, we
are requesting a one hour burden for
administrative purposes. We also
estimate that the information collection
imposes no cost burden.

Estimates of average burden hours

program will not be kept confidential.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor,
and a person is not required to respond

Whether the proposed collection of
