Adoption of Amendment to Delegation of Authority to Secretary of the Commission

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission') is amending its Delegation of Authority to Secretary of the Commission to permit the Secretary to waive the bond requirement set forth in the Rules on Fair Fund and Disgorgement Plans if the fair or disgorgement funds are held at the U.S. Department of the Treasury ("Treasury') and will be disbursed by the Treasury. This amendment is intended to enhance efficient processing of disgorgement/fair fund plans and to lower the cost of plan administration.
