“Public input assists the MSRB in prioritizing ongoing work on current initiatives and identifying additional market concerns or issues that should be considered,” said MSRB Executive Director Lynnette Kelly. “This is an opportunity for market participants and others to contribute to our agenda-setting process.” 

Comments should be submitted to the MSRB no later than March 29, 2013.
