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 24b-1, OMB Control No. 3235-0194, SEC File No. 270-205.

    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 (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (``OMB'') a request for approval of extension of the 
existing collection of information provided for in the following rule: 
Rule 24b01 (17 CFR 240.24b-1).
    Rule 24b-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a 
et seq.) requires a national securities exchange to keep and make 
available for public inspection a copy of its registration statement 
and exhibits filed with the Commission, along with any amendments 
thereto.
    There are 15 national securities exchanges that spend approximately 
one half hour each complying with this rule, for an aggregate total 
compliance burden of 7.5 hours per year. The staff estimates that the 
average cost per respondent is $65.18 per year, calculated as the costs 
of copying ($13.97) plus storage ($51.21), resulting in a total cost of 
compliance for the respondents of $977.70.
    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 control number.
    The public may view the background documentation for this 
information collection at the following Web site, www.reginfo.gov. 
Comments should be directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and 
Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503 or by sending an email to Shagufta_Ahmed@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) 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 PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. Comments must be submitted within 30 days of this 
notice.

    Dated: December 19, 2011.
Kevin M. O'Neill,
Deputy Secretary.
