Abstract:
Rule 613 requires the sixteen national securities exchanges and one national securities association to develop and file a national market system ("NMS") plan to govern the creation, implementation and maintenance of a consolidated audit trail and central repository for the collection of information for NMS securities. The NMS plan must require each SRO and its respective members to provide certain data to the central repository in compliance with Rule 613. The NMS plan also must include a discussion of specified considerations, and certain provisions related to administration and operation of the NMS plan and the operation of the central repository. Further, the NMS plan is required to include certain provisions related to compliance by the SROs and their members with the requirements of the Rule and the NMS plan.

Short Statement:
In light of the modifications to the proposed Rule, the Commission is increasing substantially its estimated annual time burden needed for the development and filing of the NMS plan. The Commission also is adjusting its preliminary time burden estimates for the preparation and filing of an NMS plan to reflect the registration of two additional SROs after it issued the preliminary estimates. Most significantly, the adopted Rule, at this stage, requires one information collection the creation and filing of an NMS plan versus seven information collections which were detailed in the information collection submission for the proposed Rule. As noted above, the Commission is deferring its economic analysis of the consolidated audit trail (other than with respect to the NMS plan) until after the NMS plan, including the detailed information and analysis, has been submitted by the SROs and there has been an opportunity for public comment. Similarly, the Commission is deferring its discussion of the much more significant time burden associated with the other paperwork requirements of the consolidated audit trail. The Commission also is deferring its discussion of the ongoing burden hours associated with the NMS plan because such ongoing burdens would only be incurred if the Commission approves the NMS plan. Instead, the Commission will defer these discussions until after the NMS plan, including the detailed information and analysis, has been submitted by the SROs and there has been an opportunity for public comment.
