SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

 
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon written request, copies available from: U.S. Securities and 
Exchange Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, 
Washington, DC 20549-0213.

Extension: Rule 30b1-5, SEC File No. 270-520, OMB Control No. 3235-
0577.

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (``Act'') the U.S. Securities and 
Exchange Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (``OMB'') a request for extension of the 
previously approved collection of information discussed below.
    The title for the collection of information is ``Rule 30b1-5 (17 
CFR 270.30b1-5) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 
80a-1 et seq.), Quarterly Filing of Schedule of Portfolio Holdings of 
Registered Management Investment Companies.''
    Rule 30b1-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 requires 
registered management investment companies, other than small business 
investment companies registered on Form N-5, (17 CFR 239.24 and 274.5) 
to file a quarterly report via the Commission's EDGAR system on Form N-
Q (17 CFR 249.332 and 274.130), not more than 60 calendar days after 
the close of each first and third fiscal quarter, containing their 
complete portfolio holdings.
    The Commission estimates that there are 2,820 management investment 
companies and series that are governed by the rule. For purposes of 
this analysis, the burden associated with the requirements of Rule 
30b1-5 has been included in the collection of information requirements 
of Form N-Q, rather than the rule.
    The collection of information under rule 30b1-5 is mandatory. The 
information provided under rule 30b1-5 is not kept confidential. An 
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to 
respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently 
valid OMB control number.
    Please direct general comments regarding the above information to 
the following persons: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive 
Office Building, Washington, DC 20503 or e-mail to: 
nfraser@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) Lewis W. Walker, Acting Director/CIO, 
Securities and Exchange Commission, C/O Shirley Martinson, 6432 General 
Green Way, Alexandria, VA 22312; or send an e-mail to: PRA_
Mailbox@sec.gov. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 days of 
this notice.

    Dated: October 20, 2008.
Florence E. Harmon,
Acting Secretary.
