S. 3510 and Periodic Transaction Reports
S. 3510 and Periodic Transaction Reports. Issued by the House Committee on Ethics on Aug 7, 2012 (statement issued).
Statement
Last Thursday, Congress passed S. 3510, which, when signed into law, would make two limited changes to the STOCK Act (S. 2038). Due to misleading press reports about S. 3510, the Committee heard from numerous filers who thought that the implementation of the entire STOCK Act had been delayed, and therefore they mistakenly believed they could postpone compliance with the STOCK Act in general. This impression is NOT correct. NO current filing obligations have been postponed. Instead, S. 3510 will 1) allow for a one-month delay of online publication of reports by the Clerk of the House (and other designated offices), and 2) increase periodic transaction report (PTR) requirements for House filers beginning September 30, 2012. Specifically, provided S. 3510 is signed into law before September 30, 2012, beginning September 30, all House filers will be required, for the first time, to include certain transactions in stocks, bonds, and other securities owned by their spouses and dependent children on periodic transaction reports (PTRs).
