SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has 
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for 
review and clearance.

Records and Reports Concerning Experiences With Approved New Animal 
Drugs: Adverse Event Reports on Paper Forms FDA 1932, 1932a, and 2301--
21 CFR 514.80; OMB Control Number 0910-0284--Extension

    Section 512(l) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the 
FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360b(l) and 514.80 (21 CFR 514.80) of FDA 
regulations require applicants of approved new animal drug applications 
(NADAs) and abbreviated new animal drug applications (ANADAs) to report 
adverse drug experiences and product/manufacturing defects (see 
514.80)(b)). Additionally, section 571(e)(3) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 
360ccc(e)(3)) requires that

[[Page 74729]]

applicants for conditional approval of new animal drugs (CNADAs) 
maintain adequate reports and records of adverse drug experiences and 
product/manufacturing defects as applicable under section 512(l) of the 
FD&C Act.
    The continuous monitoring of approved NADAs, ANADAs, and CNADAs 
affords the primary means by which FDA obtains information regarding 
potential problems with the safety and efficacy of marketed approved 
new animal drugs as well as potential product/manufacturing problems. 
Post-approval marketing surveillance is important because data 
previously submitted to FDA may not be adequate as animal drug effects 
can change over time and less apparent effects may take years to 
manifest.
    Under 514.80(d), an applicant must report adverse drug experiences 
and product/manufacturing defects on Form FDA 1932, ``Veterinary 
Adverse Drug Reaction, Lack of Effectiveness, Product Defect Report.'' 
Periodic drug experience reports and special drug experience reports 
must be accompanied by a completed Form FDA 2301, ``Transmittal of 
Periodic Reports and Promotional Material for New Animal Drugs,'' (see 
514.80). Form FDA 1932a, ``Veterinary Adverse Drug Reaction, Lack of 
Effectiveness or Product Defect Report,'' allows for voluntary 
reporting of adverse drug experiences or product/manufacturing defects.
    In 2010, electronic versions of Forms FDA 1932 and 1932a were 
incorporated into the FDA Safety Reporting Portal. This electronic 
system is used for collecting, submitting, and processing adverse event 
reports and other safety information for all FDA regulated products. 
Burden for the electronic version of these forms is accounted for under 
OMB control number 0910-0645. This approval request accounts for the 
collection of information using existing paper Forms FDA 1932, 1932a, 
and 2301 and is currently approved under OMB control number 0910-0284. 
FDA estimates that, at this time, approximately 50 percent of the 
respondents utilize paper forms for submitting this information. We 
expect this number to decrease as more respondents avail themselves of 
the FDA Safety Reporting Portal.
    In the Federal Register of September 29, 2014 (79 FR 58355), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. No comments were received.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
