Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 137 / Friday, July 17, 2015 / Notices
Commission notes that, while
information barriers are not specifically
required under this proposed rule
change, a firm’s business model or
business activities may dictate that an
information barrier or a functional
separation be part of the appropriate set
of policies and procedures that would
be reasonably designed to achieve
compliance with applicable securities
law and regulations, and with
applicable Exchange rules.
Finally, the Commission notes that
the policies and procedures required by
NYSE MKT Rule 3(j) are subject to
oversight by the Exchange and review
by FINRA,32 and the Commission
emphasizes that member organizations
operating a Specialist, e-Specialist or
Market Maker should be proactive in
assuring that its policies and procedures
reflect the current state of its business
and continue to be reasonably designed
to achieve compliance with applicable
federal securities law and regulations
and with applicable Exchange rules.33
V. Conclusion
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 34 that the
proposed rule change (SR–NYSEMKT–
2015–23), as modified by Amendment
No. 1, be, and it hereby is, approved.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated
authority.35
Brent J. Fields,
Secretary.

Questionnaire—20 CFR 404.1007—
0960–0040. When SSA needs
information to determine a worker’s
employment status for the purpose of
maintaining a worker’s earning records,
the agency uses Form SSA–7160–F4 to
determine the existence of an employeremployee relationship. We use the
information to develop the employment
relationship; specifically to determine
whether a beneficiary is self-employed
or an employee. The respondents are
individuals seeking to establish their
status as employees, and the individuals
alleged employers.

0960–0310. State vocational
rehabilitation (VR) agencies submit

reimbursement of costs incurred for
providing VR services. SSA requires
state VR agencies to submit
reimbursement claims for the following
categories: (1) Claiming reimbursement
for VR services provided; (2) certifying
adherence to cost containment policies
and procedures; and (3) preparing
causality statements. The respondents
mail the paper copy of the SSA–199 to
SSA for consideration and approval of
the claim for reimbursement of costs
incurred for SSA beneficiaries. For
claims certifying adherence to cost
containment policies and procedures, or
for preparing causality statements, State
VR agencies submit written requests as
stipulated in SSA’s regulations within
the Code of Federal Regulations. In most
market makers that have access to specified nonpublic trading information, also adopted principlesbased approaches to prevent the misuse of material
non-public information for cash equity markets. See
Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 72534 (July 3,
2014), 79 FR 39019 (July 9, 2014) (SR–NYSE–2014–

non-public information.
