Proposed Extension of Information Collection Request Submitted for Public Comment; Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 2002-12, Cross-Trades of Securities by Index and Model Funds

The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA 95). This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration is soliciting comments on the proposed extension of the disclosure provisions of the Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 2002-12, Cross-Trades of Securities by Index and Model Funds. A copy of the information collection request (ICR) can be obtained by contacting the individual shown in the Addresses section of this notice.
