Abstract:
Rule 19h-1 under the Securities Exchange Act (17 CFR 240.19h-1) explains what information the self-regulatory organizations (SROs) must include in their notices and applications to enable a statutorily disqualified person to associate, continue to associate, or continue membership with an SRO. The main purpose of Rule 19h-1 is to give the Commission a chance to review whether a person who is statutorily disqualified should be allowed to enter or to continue in the securities industry. This review helps to ensure their involvement is in the public interest and helps protect investors. This information must be submitted when the statutorily disqualified persons want to enter or continue working in the securities industry. The Rule 19h-1 information collection is a reporting requirement, and the respondents are the SROs.

Short Statement:
The total estimated burden decreased from 47,280 hours to 3,960 hours, primarily because the Commission reduced the estimated number of respondents from 20 to 1 to account for the fact that our experience reflects that the overwhelming majority of these notices and notifications are submitted by a single SRO.
