SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title of Collection: Consumer Leasing Act (Regulation M) 12 CFR 
1013.
    OMB Control Number: 3170-0006.
    Type of Review: Extension without change of an existing Information 
Collection.
    Affected Public: Businesses and other for-profit entities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 13,718.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 2,126.
    Abstract: Consumers rely on the disclosures required by the 
Consumer Leasing Act, 15 U.S.C. 1667 et seq. (CLA) and Regulation M, 12 
CFR 1013, for information to comparison shop among leases, as well as 
to ascertain the true costs and terms of lease offers. Federal and 
State enforcement and private litigants use the records to ascertain 
whether accurate and complete disclosures of the cost of leases have 
been provided to consumers prior to consummation of the lease. This 
information provides the primary evidence of law violations in CLA 
enforcement actions brought by Federal agencies. Without Regulation M's 
recordkeeping requirement, the agencies' ability to enforce the CLA 
would be significantly impaired.
    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.

    Dated: August 28, 2018.

Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Bureau of Consumer Financial 
Protection.
