SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 
20549-2736.

Extension:
    Form 20-F; SEC File No. 270-156, OMB Control No. 3235-0288.

    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'') 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 20-F (17 CFR 249.220f) is used to register securities of 
foreign private issuers pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities 
Exchange Act of 1934 (``Exchange Act'') (15 U.S.C. 78l) or as annual 
and transitional reports pursuant to Sections 13 and 15(d) of the 
Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78m(a) and 78o(d)). The information required in 
the Form 20-F is used by investors in making investment decisions with 
respect to the securities of such foreign private issuers. We estimate 
that Form 20-F takes approximately 2,645.52 hours per response and is 
filed by approximately 725 respondents. We estimate that 25% of the 
2,645.52 hours per response (661.38 hours) is prepared by the issuer 
for a total reporting burden of 479,501 (661.38 hours per response x 
725 responses).
    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 imposed by 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.
    Please direct your written comments to Pamela Dyson, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549; or send an email 
to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.

    Dated: February 23, 2015.
Jill M. Peterson,
Assistant Secretary.
