The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC” or “Commission”) seeks Office of Management and Budget (“OMB”) clearance for revised reporting requirements under its Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act Rules and corresponding Premerger Notification and Report Form for Certain Mergers and Acquisitions. On June 29, 2023, the FTC submitted a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“NPRM”) and an accompanying Supporting Statement to the OMB for review under the Paperwork Reduction Act (“PRA”). On July 7, 2023, OMB directed the Commission to resubmit its request when the proposed rule was finalized. The Final Rule was promulgated on November 12, 2024, and will be effective on February 10, 2025. The Commission is now submitting the Final Rule amendments and a Supplemental Supporting Statement to OMB.
