Commodity Futures Trading Commission April 5, 2012 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (``CFTC'' or ``Commission'') seeks public comment on the collection of certain information by the Commission under section 745 of the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (``Dodd-Frank Act''). The Paperwork Reduction Act (``PRA'') requires federal agencies to publish a notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information and to allow 60 days for public comment. Section 745 requires the Commission to seek public comment for not less than 30 days with respect to certain industry filings. This notice solicits comments on the provisions of the Commission's final rulemaking on ``Provisions Common to Registered Entities'' under which the Commission would collect comments on the industry filings by publication of documents related to the filings and a request for comments on the Commission's public Web site.\1\
