SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 
20549-2736.

Extension:
    Rule 31 and Form R31, SEC File No. 270-537, OMB Control No. 
3235-0597.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and 
Exchange Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (``OMB'') a request for extension of the 
previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule 31 
(17 CFR 240.31) and Form R31 (17 CFR 249.11) under the Securities 
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78ee.) (``Exchange Act'').
    Section 31 of the Exchange Act requires the Commission to collect 
fees and assessments from national securities exchanges and national 
securities associations (collectively, ``self-regulatory 
organizations'' or ``SROs'') based on the volume of their securities 
transactions. To collect the proper amounts, the Commission adopted 
Rule 31 and Form R31 under the Exchange Act whereby the SROs must 
report to the Commission the volume of their securities transactions 
and the Commission, based on those data, calculates the amount of fees 
and assessments that the SROs owe pursuant to Section 31. Rule 31 and 
Form R31 require the SROs to provide this data on a monthly basis.
    Currently, there are 23 respondents under Rule 31: 19 national 
securities exchanges, one security futures exchange, and one national 
securities association subject to the collection of information 
requirements of Rule 31; there are additionally two registered clearing 
agencies that are required to provide certain data in their possession 
needed by the SROs to complete Form R31, although these two entities 
are not themselves required to complete and submit Form R31. The 
Commission estimates that the total burden for all 23 respondents is 
390 hours per year. The Commission notes that, based on previous and 
current experience, it estimates an additional three new national 
securities exchanges will become registered and subject to the 
reporting requirements of Rule 31 over the course of the authorization 
period and incur a burden of 18 hours per year. Thus, the Commission 
estimates the total burden for the existing and expected new 
respondents to be 408 hours per year.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it 
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    The public may view background documentation for this information 
collection at the following Web site: www.reginfo.gov. Comments should 
be directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of 
Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office Building, 
Washington, DC 20503, or by sending an email to: 
Shagufta_Ahmed@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) Pamela Dyson, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549, or by sending an 
email to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 
30 days of this notice.

    Dated: August 9, 2016.

Deputy Secretary.
