Form ADV-E, OMB Control No. 3235-0361, SEC File No. 270-318.
Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the
collection of information summarized below. The Commission plans to
submit this existing collection of information to the Office of
Management and Budget for extension and approval.
Form ADV-E (17 CFR 279.8) is the cover sheet for certificates of
accounting filed pursuant to rule 206(4)-2 under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940 (17 CFR 275.206(4)-2). The rule further requires
that the public accountant file with the Commission a Form ADV-E and
accompanying statement within four business days of the resignation,
dismissal, removal or other termination of its engagement. Respondents
each spend approximately three minutes, annually, complying with the
requirements of the form.
The estimate of burden hours set forth above is made solely for the
purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act and is not derived from a
comprehensive or representative survey or study of the cost of
Commission rules and forms.
Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including whether the information will
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of
the burden of the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the information 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 a
collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB
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 Thomas Bayer, Director/Chief
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi
Pavlik-Simon, 6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, VA 22312; or send an
email to: [email protected].
Dated: September 19, 2012.
