including the validity of the

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mara Blumenthal by telephone at 202–

PUBLIC@dol.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
408(a) of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act (ERISA) authorizes
this information collection. Prohibited
Transaction Class Exemption 84–14
permits a party that is related to an
employee benefit plan to engage in
transactions involving plan assets if,
among other conditions, the assets are
managed by a qualified professional
asset manager (QPAM) that is
independent of the parties in interest.
The information collection requirements
that are conditions of the exemption
include written policies and procedures
by a QPAM and audit requirements. An
independent auditor uses the written
policies and procedures to determine
whether the QPAM is in compliance
with the written policies and
procedures and whether the exemption
conditions have been met. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
July 22, 2022 (87 FR 43897).
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
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 OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3)
years. OMB authorization for an ICR
cannot be for more than three (3) years
without renewal. The DOL notes that
information collection requirements
submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review.
Agency: DOL–EBSA.
Title of Collection: Plan Asset
Transactions Determined by
Independent Qualified Professional
Asset Managers Prohibited Transaction
Exemption.
