Defense Innovation Board; Notice of Federal Advisory Committee Meeting, 28792-28793 [2019-13066]

Download as PDF jbell on DSK3GLQ082PROD with NOTICES 28792 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 119 / Thursday, June 20, 2019 / Notices consisting of hyperlinks to the text of the applicable provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act, Commission Regulations, and NFA Rules, whenever those authorities are referenced in the form. Additionally, revised Form 7–R incorporates certain clarifying language where appropriate. For example, the term ‘‘futures’’ has been replaced with the term ‘‘derivatives’’ in several locations to more accurately reflect the full scope of the Commission’s jurisdiction. Similarly, the reference to a failure ‘‘to pay an award issued in a futures-related arbitration’’ was replaced with the phrase ‘‘failure to pay an award related to a CFTC-related product.’’ The revised Form 7–R contains other changes to the language, formatting and organization of Form 7–R, all of which—individually and collectively— do not alter the information collection burdens associated with Form 7–R. The only changes to Form 7–R that could affect the information collection burdens associated with the form are those discussed above. Comments. In the 60-Day Notice, the Commission provided 60 days for public comment on the extension and revision of the currently approved information collections under OMB control numbers 3038–0023 and 3038– 0072 including, among other things, its estimates regarding the modified information collection burdens associated with the amendments to Form 7–R. The Commission received one relevant comment letter that: (1) Contended that a new question that was added to Question E of Form 7–R directing the applicant to disclose whether it has ever been found to have ‘‘failed to supervise another person’s activities under any investment-related statute or regulation’’ is redundant because Question E already requires an applicant to disclose whether it has ‘‘violated any provision of any investment-related statute or regulation thereunder’’; and (2) suggested broadening Question G of Form 7–R by deleting the portion of that question that only requires disclosure of selfregulatory organizations actions ‘‘that prevented or restricted the firm’s ability to engage in any business in the financial services industry.’’ 4 The letter did not address or offer alternatives to the Commission’s estimates of the burden associated with revised Form 7– R. The Commission has determined that no further changes to Form 7–R or the information collection burdens 4 See Letter from James L. Simon dated May 6, 2019, available at https://comments.cftc.gov/ PublicComments/ ViewComment.aspx?id=62116&SearchText=. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:47 Jun 19, 2019 Jkt 247001 associated therewith are warranted in response to this comment because: (1) The new required disclosure item in Question E asks for different information than the existing item that was claimed to be redundant, and is intended to ensure complete disclosure of conduct that may result in a refusal or limitation on registration; 5 and (2) the Commission believes that the suggested broadening of Question G would require disclosure of matters that are outside the jurisdiction of the Commission.6 Burden Statement: As explained above, the Commission believes that the revisions to Form 7–R will result in no net change to the information collection burdens associated with that Form under OMB control numbers 3038–0023 and 3038–0072.7 The Commission estimates the burden of this collection of information under OMB control number 3038–0023 to be: Respondents/Affected Entities: Users of Form 7–R that are futures commission merchants, retail foreign exchange dealers, introducing brokers, commodity trading advisors, commodity pool operators, floor trader firms, and leverage transaction merchants. Estimated number of respondents: 78,055.8 Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 7,735 hours. Frequency of collection: Periodically. There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection. The Commission estimates the burden of this collection of information under OMB control number 3038–0072 to be: 5 See Adoption of Revised Registration Form 7– R, 84 FR 8671, 8672 (Mar. 11, 2019). 6 If Question G were revised as suggested, it would require the applicant to disclose whether it has been the subject of any order issued by or a party to any agreement with a U.S. or non-U.S. regulatory authority (other than the CFTC), including but not limited to a licensing authority, or self-regulatory organization (other than NFA or a U.S. futures exchange). 7 The revisions to Form 7–R do not change the existing estimated number of respondents under OMB control numbers 3038–0023 and 3038–0072. This estimate includes the collection burdens associated with Forms 7–R, 7–W, 8–R and 8–T, based on the historical practice of the Commission of addressing the burden estimates in aggregate, rather than separately on a form-by-form basis, for all of the registration forms: Forms 7–R, 7–W, 8– R, and 8–W. 8 As noted above and in the 60-day notice, the revisions to Form 7–R do not change the existing estimated number of respondents under OMB control numbers 3038–0023 and 3038–0072. However, regarding the estimated number of respondents for OMB control number 3038–0023, the estimate in the 60-Day Notice incorrectly stated that there were 78.055 respondents. The correct estimate is 78,055 respondents. There is no change in the estimated total annual burden on respondents for collection 3038–0023, which is 7,735 hours. PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Respondents/Affected Entities: Users of Form 7–R that are swap dealers and major swap participants. The following estimates are based on the average annual number of swap dealer and major swap participant Form 7–R filers for the past three years. Estimated number of respondents: 772. Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 672 hours. Frequency of collection: Periodically. There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection.
