    Abstract: Regulation N (12 CFR 1014), prohibits misrepresentations 
about the terms of mortgage credit products in commercial 
communications and requires that covered persons keep certain related 
records for a period of twenty-four (24) months from last 
dissemination. The information that Regulation N requires covered 
persons to retain is necessary to ensure efficient and effective law 
enforcement to address deceptive practices that occur in the mortgage 
advertising area. The Bureau is not proposing any new or revised 
collections of information pursuant to this request.
    Request for Comments: Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the Bureau, including whether the information will 
have practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the Bureau's estimate of 
the burden of the collection of information, including the validity of 
the methods and the assumptions used; (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. Comments submitted in response to this 
notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB 
approval. All comments will become a matter of public record.
