The increase in internal burden hours is due to both the increase in the number of portfolios estimated to respond to rule 30e-2, the increased burden our amendments to Regulation S-X, and the inapplicability of one-time hour burdens that were associated with amendments to Forms N-1A, N-2 and N-3. The increase in external costs per year is due to the increased number of portfolios estimated to respond to rule 30e-2.
