The test used in applying Rule 3–16 employs a bright-line percentage threshold that a registrant must apply to a limited set of measures similar to Rules 3–05 and 3–09. Unlike those rules, the market value of an affiliate’s securities may not be readily available in the absence of a public market for those securities. tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS Request for Comment 46. Do the Rule 3–16 requirements influence the structure of collateral arrangements? If so, how and what are the consequences, if any, to investors and registrants? 47. How do investors use Rule 3–16 Financial Statements and the Rule 4–08(b) footnote disclosures? Are there challenges that investors face in using the disclosures? 48. Are there changes to these requirements we should consider to further facilitate the disclosure of useful information to investors? For example, is there different or additional information that investors need about affiliates whose securities collateralize registered securities? If so, what information is needed and are there challenges that registrants would face in preparing and providing it? 49. Are there challenges that registrants face in preparing and providing the required disclosures? If so, what are the challenges? Are there changes to these requirements we should consider to address those challenges? If so, what changes and how would those changes affect investors’ ability to make informed decisions? 50. Are there requirements that result in disclosures that investors do not consider useful? If so, what changes would make them useful or should we consider eliminating or replacing all or part of those requirements? 51. How could we improve the usefulness of the Rule 4–08(b) footnote disclosure? Could we do so by adding a requirement to disclose additional details about the affiliates? If so, what additional details should we require? 52. If we make changes to improve the usefulness of the footnote disclosure, would it be appropriate to modify the requirement to provide Rule 3–16 Financial Statements? If so, how? If not, why? 53. Should we revise the test used in applying Rule 3–16? If so, how? If not, why? VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:05 Sep 30, 2015 Jkt 238001 Additional Request for Comment on Rule 3–16 and Related Requirements 54. Should smaller reporting companies and emerging growth companies continue to be subject to the same requirements or should requirements for those registrants be scaled? If they should be scaled, in what way? If not, why? VI. Other Requirements In addition to the issues raised in this request for comment, we encourage all interested persons to submit their views on any issues relating to the financial information about entities, or portions of entities, other than a registrant. For example, Rule 3–14, Special Instructions for Real Estate Operations to be Acquired,88 while separate and distinct from Rule 3–05, is intended to achieve similar objectives within a particular industry. In addition, Item 2.01 of Form 8–K uses significance tests to determine when to provide disclosure about asset acquisitions. The requirements addressed in this request for comment may apply more broadly than the situations described. To the extent there may be additional effects, please provide comments. Request for Comment 55. As we continue our ongoing efforts to review disclosure rules, what other rules and forms should be considered for review and why? 56. Currently, financial disclosures related to entities other than a registrant are filed in XBRL format to the extent that they are part of the registrant’s financial statements.89 Other disclosures, such as the separate financial statements of entities other than the registrant and Pro Forma Financial Information are not required to be presented in a structured, machine-readable format. Would investors benefit from having all of the disclosures related to these entities made in an interactive data format? Would it depend on the nature of the information being disclosed (e.g., disclosure related to a one-time transaction such as an acquisition or ongoing disclosure related to an Investee)? What would be the cost to registrants? 57. In what other ways could we utilize technology to further facilitate the disclosure of useful information to investors or address challenges faced by investors and registrants? 88 17 CFR 210.3–14. example, the Summarized Financial Information required by Rule 4–08(g) of Regulation S–X and the Consolidating Information required by Rule 3–10 of Regulation S–X. 89 For PO 00000 Frm 00016 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 58. Are there ways that we could further facilitate the use of information by all types of investors? If so, please explain. For example, should we consider alternative ways of presenting the information, such as specifically allowing or requiring registrants to provide a summary along with more detailed required information to enable investors to review the information at the level of detail that they prefer? VII. Closing This request for comment is not intended in any way to limit the scope of comments, views, issues or approaches to be considered. In addition to investors and registrants, the Commission welcomes comment from other market participants and particularly welcomes statistical, empirical, and other data from commenters that may support their views and/or support or refute the views or issues raised.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS I. Background The Federal departments and agencies that were signatories to the proposed Common Rule, published on September 6, 2015, at 80 FR 53933, and HUD (collectively the ‘‘Federal Agencies’’), through this proposed rule are proposing revisions to modernize, strengthen, and make more effective the Federal Policy for the Protection of Human Subjects that was promulgated as a Common Rule in 1991. The Federal Agencies seek comment on proposals to better protect human subjects involved in research, while facilitating valuable research and reducing burden, delay, and ambiguity for investigators. The September 8, 2015, proposal is an effort to modernize, simplify, and enhance the current system of oversight. The Federal Agencies propose these revisions to the regulations governing the protection of human subjects because they believe these changes would strengthen protections for research subjects while facilitating important research. Federal regulations governing the protection of human subjects recognize that individuals who are the subjects of research may be asked to contribute their time and assume risk to advance the research enterprise, which benefits society at large. Federal regulations governing the protection of human subjects in research have been in existence for more than three decades. The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW) first published regulations for the protection of human subjects in 1974, and the Department of VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:05 Sep 30, 2015 Jkt 238001 Health and Human Services (HHS) revised them in the early 1980s. During the 1980s, HHS began a process that eventually led to the adoption of a revised version of the regulations by 15 U.S. Federal departments and agencies in 1991. The purpose of this effort was to promote uniformity, understanding, and compliance with human subject protections as well as to create a uniform body of regulations across Federal departments and agencies (subpart A of 45 CFR part 46), often referred to as the ‘‘Common Rule for the Protection of Human Subjects’’ or more succinctly the ‘‘Common Rule.’’ Since the Common Rule was promulgated, the volume and landscape of research involving human subjects has changed considerably. Research with human subjects has grown in scale and become more diverse. Examples of developments include: An expansion in the number and type of clinical trials, as well as observational studies and cohort studies; a diversification of the types of social and behavioral research being used in human subjects research; increased use of sophisticated analytic techniques for use with human biospecimens; and the growing use of electronic health data and other digital records to enable very large data sets to be analyzed and combined in novel ways. Yet these developments have not been accompanied by major change in the oversight system of research involving human subjects, which has remained largely unchanged over the last two decades. The goals of the September 8, 2015, proposed rule are to address overdue changes to the Common Rule; specifically to increase human subjects’ ability and opportunity to make informed decisions; reduce potential for harm and increase justice by increasing the uniformity of human subject protections in areas such as information disclosure risk, coverage of clinical trials; and facilitate current and evolving types of research that offer promising approaches to treating and preventing medical and societal problems through reduced ambiguity in interpretation of the regulations, increased efficiencies in the performance of the review system, and reduced burdens on researchers that do not appear to provide commensurate protections to human subjects. It is hoped that these changes will also build public trust in the research system. The full description of the Federal Agencies’ proposal is set out in the September 8, 2015 rule. By crossreference to the September 8, 2015, proposed rule, HUD advises of its adoption of this proposal and solicits PO 00000 Frm 00017 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 59093 comment from HUD program participants and the general public on the September 8, 2015, proposed Common Rule. HUD’s regulation on the Protection of Human Subjects is found in 24 CFR part 60. HUD’s regulation on this subject cross-references to the HHS regulations in 45 CFR part 46. HUD’s regulation at § 60.101, entitled ‘‘Crossreference,’’ reads as follows: ‘‘The provisions set forth at 45 CFR part 46, subpart A, concerning the protection of human research subjects, apply to all research conducted, supported, or otherwise subject to regulation by HUD.’’ II. HUD’s Proposed Regulatory Text— No Change Proposed HUD’s current regulations on the protection of human subjects are, by cross-reference, the regulations on the protection of human subjects promulgated by HHS, and this proposed rule would apply that approach to the September 8, 2015, proposed Common Rule published by 16 U.S. Federal departments and agencies.

Accordingly, under 24 CFR 50.19(c)(1), this rule is categorically excluded from environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321).

This proposed rule does not impose any federal mandates on any state, local, or tribal governments or the private sector within the meaning of UMRA. Executive Order 13132, Federalism Executive Order 13132 (entitled ‘‘Federalism’’) prohibits an agency from publishing any rule that has federalism implications if the rule either (1) imposes substantial, direct compliance costs on state and local governments, and is not required by statute, or (2) preempts state law, unless the agency E:\FR\FM\01OCP1.SGM 01OCP1 59094 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 190 / Thursday, October 1, 2015 / Proposed Rules meets the consultation and funding requirements of section 6 of the Executive Order.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Federal departments and agencies that were signatories to the 
proposed Common Rule, published on September 6, 2015, at 80 FR 53933, 
and HUD (collectively the ``Federal Agencies''), through this proposed 
rule are proposing revisions to modernize, strengthen, and make more 
effective the Federal Policy for the Protection of Human Subjects that 
was promulgated as a Common Rule in 1991. The Federal Agencies seek 
comment on proposals to better protect human subjects involved in 
research, while facilitating valuable research and reducing burden, 
delay, and ambiguity for investigators. The September 8, 2015, proposal 
is an effort to modernize, simplify, and enhance the current system of 
oversight. The Federal Agencies propose these revisions to the 
regulations governing the protection of human subjects because they 
believe these changes would strengthen protections for research 
subjects while facilitating important research.
    Federal regulations governing the protection of human subjects 
recognize that individuals who are the subjects of research may be 
asked to contribute their time and assume risk to advance the research 
enterprise, which benefits society at large. Federal regulations 
governing the protection of human subjects in research have been in 
existence for more than three decades. The Department of Health, 
Education, and Welfare (HEW) first published regulations for the 
protection of human subjects in 1974, and the Department of Health and 
Human Services (HHS) revised them in the early 1980s. During the 1980s, 
HHS began a process that eventually led to the adoption of a revised 
version of the regulations by 15 U.S. Federal departments and agencies 
in 1991. The purpose of this effort was to promote uniformity, 
understanding, and compliance with human subject protections as well as 
to create a uniform body of regulations across Federal departments and 
agencies (subpart A of 45 CFR part 46), often referred to as the 
``Common Rule for the Protection of Human Subjects'' or more succinctly 
the ``Common Rule.''
    Since the Common Rule was promulgated, the volume and landscape of 
research involving human subjects has changed considerably. Research 
with human subjects has grown in scale and become more diverse. 
Examples of developments include: An expansion in the number and type 
of clinical trials, as well as observational studies and cohort 
studies; a diversification of the types of social and behavioral 
research being used in human subjects research; increased use of 
sophisticated analytic techniques for use with human biospecimens; and 
the growing use of electronic health data and other digital records to 
enable very large data sets to be analyzed and combined in novel ways. 
Yet these developments have not been accompanied by major change in the 
oversight system of research involving human subjects, which has 
remained largely unchanged over the last two decades.
    The goals of the September 8, 2015, proposed rule are to address 
overdue changes to the Common Rule; specifically to increase human 
subjects' ability and opportunity to make informed decisions; reduce 
potential for harm and increase justice by increasing the uniformity of 
human subject protections in areas such as information disclosure risk, 
coverage of clinical trials; and facilitate current and evolving types

interpretation of the regulations, increased efficiencies in the 
performance of the review system, and reduced burdens on researchers 
that do not appear to provide commensurate protections to human 
subjects. It is hoped that these changes will also build public trust 
in the research system.
    The full description of the Federal Agencies' proposal is set out 
in the September 8, 2015 rule. By cross-reference to the September 8, 
2015, proposed rule, HUD advises of its adoption of this proposal and 
solicits comment from HUD program participants and the general public 
on the September 8, 2015, proposed Common Rule. HUD's regulation on the 
Protection of Human Subjects is found in 24 CFR part 60. HUD's 
regulation on this subject cross-references to the HHS regulations in 
45 CFR part 46. HUD's regulation at Sec.  60.101, entitled ``Cross-
reference,'' reads as follows: ``The provisions set forth at 45 CFR 
part 46, subpart A, concerning the protection of human research 
subjects, apply to all research conducted, supported, or otherwise 
subject to regulation by HUD.''

II. HUD's Proposed Regulatory Text--No Change Proposed

    HUD's current regulations on the protection of human subjects are, 
by cross-reference, the regulations on the protection of human subjects 
promulgated by HHS, and this proposed rule would apply that approach to 
the September 8, 2015, proposed Common Rule published by 16 U.S. 
Federal departments and agencies.

III. Findings and Certifications

Environmental Impact

    This rule does not direct, provide for assistance or loan and 
mortgage insurance for, or otherwise govern or regulate, real property 
acquisition, disposition, leasing, rehabilitation, alteration, 
demolition or new construction, or establish, revise, or provide for 
standards for construction or construction materials, manufactured 
housing, or occupancy. Accordingly, under 24 CFR 50.19(c)(1), this rule 
is categorically excluded from environmental review under the National 
Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321).

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 
1531-1538) (UMRA) establishes requirements for federal agencies to 
assess the effects of their regulatory actions on state, local, and 
tribal governments and the private sector. This proposed rule does not 
impose any federal mandates on any state, local, or tribal governments 
or the private sector within the meaning of UMRA.

Executive Order 13132, Federalism

    Executive Order 13132 (entitled ``Federalism'') prohibits an agency 
from publishing any rule that has federalism implications if the rule 
either (1) imposes substantial, direct compliance costs on state and 
local governments, and is not required by statute, or (2) preempts 
state law, unless the agency

[[Page 59094]]

meets the consultation and funding requirements of section 6 of the 
Executive Order. This rule would not have federalism implications and 
would not impose substantial direct compliance costs on state and local 
governments or preempt state law within the meaning of the Executive 
Order.
