WASHINGTON, DC – More than two years after the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is scheduled to vote tomorrow morning, August 22, 2012, on implementing regulations for Section 1504 of the bill, which requires companies operating in the oil, gas, and mining sectors to publicly report on the payments they make to foreign governments on a project-by-project basis. The release of the regulations will enable Section 1504 to take effect, and the effected companies will shortly need to begin reporting as required by law.
