2. Title and purpose of information
collection: Availability for Work; OMB
3220–0164. Under Section 1(k) of the
Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act,
unemployment benefits are not payable
for any day for which the claimant is
not available for work.
Under Railroad Retirement Board
(RRB) regulation 20 CFR 327.5,
‘‘available for work’’ is defined as being
willing and ready for work. A claimant
is ‘‘willing’’ to work if willing to accept
and perform for hire such work as is
reasonably appropriate to his or her
employment circumstances. A claimant
is ‘‘ready’’ for work if he or she (1) is
in a position to receive notice of work
and is willing to accept and perform
such work, and (2) is prepared to be
present with the customary equipment
at the location of such work within the
time usually allotted.
Under RRB regulation 20 CFR 327.15,
a claimant may be requested at any time
to show, as evidence of willingness to
work, that reasonable efforts are being
made to obtain work. In order to
determine whether a claimant is; (a)
available for work, and (b) willing to
work, the RRB utilizes Forms UI–38, UI
Claimant’s Report of Efforts to Find
Work, and UI–38s, School Attendance
and Availability Questionnaire, to
obtain information from the claimant
and Form ID–8k, Questionnaire—
Reinstatement of Discharged or
Suspended Employee, from the union
representative. One response is
completed by each respondent.
Completion of Forms UI–38 and UI–38s
is required to obtain or retain benefits.
Completion of Form ID–8k is voluntary.
Previous Requests for Comments: The
RRB has already published the initial
60-day notice (79 FR 37357 on July 1,
2014) required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2).
That request elicited no comments.
Information Collection Request (ICR)
Title: Availability for Work.
OMB Control Number: 3220–0164.
Form(s) submitted: UI–38, UI–38s,
and ID–8k.
Type of request: Extension without
change of a currently approved
collection.
Affected public: Individuals or
Households, Non-profit institutions.
Abstract: Under Section 1(k) of the
Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act,
unemployment benefits are not payable
for any day in which the claimant is not
available for work. The collection
obtains information needed by the RRB
to determine whether a claimant is
willing and ready to work.
Changes proposed: The RRB proposes
no changes to the forms in the
collection.

(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collection of information

Rule 12g3–2 (17 CFR 240.12g3–2)
under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ‘‘Exchange Act’’) provides an

exemption from Section 12(g) of the
Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78l(g)) for
foreign private issuers. Rule 12g3–2 is
designed to provide investors in foreign
securities with information about such
securities and the foreign issuer. The
information filed under Rule 12g3–2
must be filed with the Commission and
is publicly available. We estimate that it
takes 8.95 hours per response to prepare
and is filed by approximately 1,386
respondents. Each respondent files an
estimated 12 times submissions
pursuant to Rule 12g3–per year for a
total of 16,632 respondents. We estimate
that 25% of 8.95 hours per response
(2.2375 hours per response) to provide
the information required under Rule
12g3–2 for a total annual reporting
burden of 37,214 hours (2.2375 hours
per response × 16,632 responses).
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether this proposed collection of
information is necessary for the
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the

Management and Budget for extension
and approval.
Rule 10A–1 (17 CFR 240.10A–1)
implements the reporting requirements
in Section 10A of the Exchange Act (15
U.S.C. 78j–1) which was enacted by
Congress on December 22, 1995 as part
of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, Public Law No.
104–67, 109 Stat 737. Under section
10A and Rule 10A–1 reporting occurs
only if a registrant’s board of directors
receives a report from its auditor that (1)
there is an illegal act material to the
registrant’s financial statements, (2)
senior management and the board have
not taken timely and appropriate
remedial action, and (3) the failure to
take such action is reasonably expected
to warrant the auditor’s modification of
the audit report or resignation from the
audit engagement. The board of
directors must notify the Commission
within one business day of receiving
such a report. If the board fails to
provide that notice, then the auditor,
within the next business day, must
provide the Commission with a copy of
the report that it gave to the board.
Likely respondents are those
registrants filing audited financial
statements under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 USC 78a, et
seq.) and the Investment Company Act
of 1940 (15 USC 80a–1, et seq.).
It is estimated that Rule 10A–1 results
in an aggregate additional reporting
burden of 10 hours per year. The
estimated average burden hours are
solely for purposes of the Paperwork
Reduction Act and are not derived from
a comprehensive or even a
representative survey or study of the
costs of SEC rules or forms.
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 will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the collection of
information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; 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
