An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public.
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.
Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, modify, or discontinue an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection,
supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.
The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after
which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.
ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.
Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

As required by Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act, Section 15F(h) of the Exchange Act established business conduct standards for security-based swap ("SBS") dealers and major security-based swap participants in their dealings with counterparties, including special entities.

Rule 139b, Disclosure of Standardized Performance
Key Information
Abstract
Rule 139b under the Securities Act of 1933 (17 CFR 230.139b) allows unaffiliated broker-dealers participating in a securities offering of a registered investment fund to publish or distribute research reports about the investment fund without these reports being treated as offers that require registration under securities laws. When broker-dealers include performance information in these research reports, they must present it in a standardized format consistent with existing rules. This standardization protects investors from potentially misleading or confusing performance presentations, enable investors to make meaningful comparisons between different investment funds, and maintains market integrity by ensuring research reports are not disguised as marketing materials. Rule 139b is a third party disclosure requirement, with the primary recipients being investors and the general public who read these research reports published by broker-dealers. |

Notice of Medical Necessity Criteria under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008
Key Information
Abstract
The Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 (MHPAEA) was enacted on October 3, 2008 as sections 511 and 512 of the Tax Extenders and Alternative Minimum Tax Relief Act of 2008 (Division C of Public Law 110-343). MHPAEA amends the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), the Public Health Service Act (PHS Act), and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Code). In 1996, Congress enacted the Mental Health Parity Act of 1996, which required parity in aggregate lifetime and annual dollar limits for mental health benefits and medical and surgical benefits. Those mental health parity provisions were codified in section 712 of ERISA, section 2705 of the PHS Act, and section 9812 of the Code. The changes made by MHPAEA are codified in these same sections and consist of new requirements as well as amendments to several of the existing mental health parity provisions applicable to group health plans and health insurance coverage offered in connection with a group health plan. MHPAEA and the interim final regulations do not apply to small employers who have between two and 50 employees. The changes made by MHPAEA are generally effective for plan years beginning after October 3, 2009. MHPAEA and the final regulations (29 CFR 2590.712(d)) require plan administrators to disclose the criteria for medical necessity determinations with respect to mental health and substance use disorder benefits. These third-party disclosures are information collection requests for purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act. In response to provisions of the Cures Act requires the Departments of Labor (DOL), Health and Human Services, and the Treasury (collectively, the Departments), are providing a model form that participants, enrollees, or their authorized representatives could use to request information from their health plan or issuer regarding NQTLs that may affect their MH/SUD benefits, or to obtain documentation after an adverse benefit determination involving MH/SUD benefits to support an appeal. |

Rule 607 under Regulation E, Sales Material to Be Filed
Key Information
Abstract
Regulation E (17 CFR 230.601 - 230.610a) exempts from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.) (“Securities Act”) securities of small business investment companies (“SBICs”) that are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.) and closed-end investment companies that elect to be regulated as business development companies (“BDCs”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, so long as the aggregate offering price of all securities of the issuer that may be sold within a 12-month period does not exceed $5,000,000 and certain other conditions are met. Rule 607 under Regulation E (17 CFR 230.607) requires SBICs and BDCs to file sales material used in connection with offerings under Regulation E with the SEC at least five days (excluding weekends and holidays) prior to its use. Sales material includes advertisements, articles or other communications to be published in newspapers, magazines, or other periodicals; radio and television scripts; and letters, circulars or other written communications proposed to be sent given or otherwise communicated to more than ten persons. SEC staff reviews sales material filed pursuant to Rule 607 for materially misleading statements and omissions. The requirements of Rule 607 are designed to protect investors from the use of false or misleading sales material in connection with Regulation E offerings. |
