SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Proposed Collection; Comment Request

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

Extension:
    Rule 15c1-7, SEC File No. 270-146, OMB Control No.3235-0134

    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'') is soliciting comments on the existing 
collection of information provided for in Rule 15c1-7 (17 CFR 240.15c1-
7) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) 
(``Exchange Act''). The Commission plans to submit this existing 
collection of information to the Office of Management and Budget 
(``OMB'') for extension and approval.
    Rule 15c1-7 states that any act of a broker-dealer designed to 
effect securities transactions with or for a customer account over 
which the broker-dealer (directly or through an agent or employee) has 
discretion will be considered a fraudulent, manipulative, or deceptive 
practice under the federal securities laws, unless a record is made of 
the transaction immediately by the broker-dealer. The record must 
include (a) the name of the customer, (b) the name, amount, and price 
of the security, and (c) the date and time when such transaction took 
place.
    The Commission estimates that 394 respondents collect information 
related to approximately 400,000 transactions annually under Rule 15c1-
7 and that each respondent would spend approximately 5 minutes on the 
collection of information for each transaction, for approximately 
33,338 aggregate hours per year (approximately 84.6 hours per 
respondent).
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the Commission, including whether the information 
shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's 
estimates of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology. 
Consideration will be given to comments and suggestions submitted in 
writing within 60 days of this publication.
    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.
    Please direct your written comments to: 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: [email protected].

    Dated: October 13, 2017.

Assistant Secretary.
