Extension: Rule 17g-5, SEC File. No 270-581, OMB Control No. 3235-

    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 17g-5 (17 CFR 240.17g-5) 
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 17g-5 requires the disclosure of and establishment of 
procedures to manage certain NRSRO conflicts of interest, prohibits 
certain other NRSRO conflicts of interest, and contains requirements 
regarding the disclosure of information in the case of the conflict of 
interest of an NRSRO issuing or maintaining a credit rating on an 
asset-backed security that was paid for by the issuer, sponsor, or 
underwriter of the security. The Commission previously estimated that 
the total annual burden for respondents to comply with Rule 17g-5 is 
261,295 hours.
    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 on 
respondents; 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.
    The Commission may not conduct or sponsor a collection of 
information unless it displays a currently valid control number. No 
person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a 
collection of information subject to the PRA that does not display a 
valid OMB control number.
    Please direct your written comments to: Pamela Dyson, Director/
Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o 
Candace Kenner, 100 F St NE, Washington, DC 20549 or send an email to: 
PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.
