                     The Committee  on Financial Services, to whom was referred the

                                       PURPOSE  AND SUMMARY
                     Introduced by Representative Sinema, H.R. 3032, the Securities
                   and Exchange  Commission   Reporting Modernization Act, elimi-
                   nates a reporting requirement applicable only to the Securities and
                   Exchange Commission  and previously repealed for all other federal
                   agencies.
                               BACKGROUND  AND  NEED FOR  LEGISLATION
                     Section 1121(b) of the Right to Financial Privacy Act (RFPA) re-
                   quired federal agencies to report the number of times they re-
                   quested that a financial institution provide their customer's finan-
                   cial records (1) pursuant to a customer's consent, (2) an administra-
                   tive or judicial subpoena for which the RFPA required prior notice
                   to the customer, or (3) pursuant to the RFPA's procedures for de-
                   laying notice of such records request to the customer. When the
                   SEC became  subject to the RFPA in 1981, Congress added Section
                   21(h) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Section 21(h)(6) re-
                   quires the SEC to report annually on requests under the RFPA as
                   well as the number of times the agency sought judicial orders de-
                      59-006
