FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Frederick Licari by telephone at 202– SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00093 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 31109 This ICR seeks approval under the PRA for revisions to the Prohibited Transaction Exemption 1986–128 For Securities Transactions Involving Employee Benefit Plans and Broker-Dealers. PTE 1986–128, as amended, permits persons who serve as fiduciaries for employee benefit plans and IRAs to effect or execute securities transactions on behalf of the plans and IRAs. The exemption also allows a fiduciary to act as an agent in an agency cross transaction for an employee benefit plan or IRA and one or more other parties to the transaction and receive reasonable compensation from the other party. The PTE requires the fiduciary relying on the exemption to obtain written authorization executed in advance by an independent fiduciary of the employee benefit plan whose assets are involved in the transaction. This information collection is a revision because the Department is renewing the information collections contained in PTE 75–1 that had been in place prior to 2016. Section 408 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (‘‘ERISA’’) authorizes this information collection. See U.S. Code 29 U.S.C. 1108. This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless the OMB under the PRA approves it and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection under Control Number 1210– 0059.
