From: Jack Brill [jbrill@cox.net] Sent: Sunday, December 01, 2002 3:33 PM To: rule-comments@SEc.gov Subject: File No. S7-36-02 It is important that mutual funds be required to vote their proxies and report how they voted to shareholders of the fund. This is especially true based on the issues of corporate governance issued raised by the recent "Enron type scandals". When mutual funds are required to investigate the companies, vote their proxies and report their actions to shareholders the shareholder then will be better protected from corporate governance problems impacting investment value. I urgently request that the SEC adapt the policy requiring mutual funds to report proxy voting to investor shareholders. Respectfully, JACK A.
