that is work for the council to do, and for the council to make judgments. next meeting in november. there is quite an active, vigorous process of staff members of the various council entities working in the meantime. and i think when the council has received public comments, in response to the notice that put in the federal register, and has a greater opportunity to gather how they want to organize those tai chi, a process by which they want to apply them, they will i think say so out loud. but i think for me to take a guess at that now would not be appropriate. >> mr. secretary, sean cota with divine. one of the points you made was on innovative technology. and rapid deployment of regulations for standardization. one of the elements in the dodd-frank bill is oversight of derivatives, obviously. of the world $625 trillion of nominal value, approximate, 300 of which is u.s. and the vast number of trades in reporting in order have transparency we didn't include any financing for the cftc in regard to its budget in order to do that. what is the strategy from t

the one concern that i have some, this is to counsel, is that i understand that would council was doingthrough some of what i've seen in terms of the proposed process seized or rules is trying to make sure that in the process of making the selection that we don't run foul of the legal requirements that we have to comply with. it is important to be mindful. at the same time, compliance with those legal requirements this not necessarily require that the process or rules be followed but that in fact there are different ways in which compliance can happen and my main concern is making sure that the process is not so descriptive that it might lead to complaints. that is the balance of you have to strike. in a way, this makes sure that we are aware of what the law requires and making sure that that compliance actually addresses the concerns of having a process that will lead to something. i don't know if that makes sense but this is what of the rules requires. i think that we can get there with the objectives of
