GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request Child Care Subsidy 
Application--Provider

AGENCY: Office of Child Care, GSA.

ACTION: Notice of request for approval for a new information collection 
entitled Child Care Subsidy Application--Provider.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The General Services Administration has submitted an emergency 
processing information collection to the Office of Management and 
Budget pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
chapter 35). OMB approval has been requested by May 3, 2000. The 
proposed information collection activity is for the approval of the 
form for implementation of the GSA Child Care Subsidy for lower income 
Federal employees. The OPM Rule was published March 14, 2000. The form 
would be used to verify the fees paid by Federal employees to licensed 
child care providers so that providers could be paid a portion of those 
fees by GSA. The Rule requires funds to subsidize lower income 
employees' child care rate be paid to child care providers rather than 
employees. The form will also request banking information so those 
child care providers can be paid via electronic funds transfer.

DATES: Submit comments on or before May 3, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect 
of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing 
this burden, should be submitted to: Marjorie Ashby, General Service 
Administration, (MVP) 1800 F Street, NW, Washington, DC 20405.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bonnie Storm, Office of Child Care, 
GSA, 202-208-5119.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    A. Purpose: The purpose of this Notice is to consult with and 
solicit comments from the public concerning the proposed collection of 
information regarding GSA child care subsidy for lower income GSA 
employees.
    B. Annual Reporting Burden Respondents: 500, annual responses; 500; 
average hours per response: .15; bruden hours: 125.
