SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
17 CFR Part 240
[Release No. 34-34245; File No. S7-6-94]
RIN 3235-AF84, 3235 AG12
Confirmation of Securities Transactions--Extension of Comment
Period
AGENCY: Securities and Exchange Commission.
ACTION: Extension of comment period.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Securities and Exchange Commission is extending the public
comment period from June 15, 1994, to July 15, 1994, for proposed
amendments to Rule 10b-10 and a new rule, Rule 15c2-13, which would
require brokers, dealers, and municipal securities dealers to make
certain disclosures on their customer confirmations.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before July 15, 1994.
ADDRESSES: Comments should be submitted in triplicate to Jonathan G.
Katz, Secretary, Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 Fifth Street
NW., Washington, DC 20549. All comment letters should refer to File No.
S7-6-94. All comments received will be available for public inspection
and copying at the Commission's Public Reference Room, 450 Fifth Street
NW., Washington, DC 20549.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: C. Dirk Peterson, Senior Counsel,
(202) 942-0073, Securities and Exchange Commission, Division of Market
Regulation, 450 Fifth Street NW., Washington, DC 20549.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 9, 1994, the Commission proposed
for public comment amendments to Rule 10b-10 and a new rule, Rule 15c2-
13 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Securities Exchange Act
Release No. 33743, 59 FR 12767). Those proposals expanded the
information that brokers, dealers, and municipal securities would be
required to disclose on a customer confirmation. The proposals are
designed to aid investors in monitoring their securities transactions
and update the Commission's confirmation requirements to reflect
changes in the securities markets.
At the time these proposals were published, the Commission
established a 90-day comment period that expired on June 15, 1994. The
Commission has received several requests from interested persons to
extend the comment period. In light of the complex issues raised by
these proposals and the need to solicit the views of as many persons
who will be affected by the proposals as possible, the Commission is
extending the comment period 30 days. Accordingly, the comment period
is extended to July 15, 1994.
Dated: June 22, 1994.
By the Commission.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
