Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comprehensive Child 
Welfare Information System

AGENCY: Children's Bureau; Administration for Children and Families; 
HHS.

ACTION: Request for public comment.

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

SUMMARY: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is 
requesting a revision of the CCWIS information collection authorized by 
the CCWIS Final Rule (81 FR 35450-35482). The Automated Function List 
and the Data Quality Plan are revised to be annual submissions of 
updates with no change to the burden hours per year. Initial submission 
of the Automated Function List, the Data Quality Plan, and the Notice 
of Intent have been removed, as we do not expect to receive more than 
the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) threshold in a single year. There are 
no required instruments associated with this data collection.

DATES: Comments due within 60 days of publication. In compliance with 
the requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, the Administration for Children and Families is soliciting 
public comment on the specific aspects of the information collection 
described above.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed collection of information can be 
obtained and comments may be forwarded by emailing 
[email protected]. Alternatively, copies can also be obtained 
by writing to the Administration for Children and Families, Office of 
Planning, Research, and Evaluation, 330 C Street SW, Washington, DC 
20201, Attn: OPRE Reports Clearance Officer. All requests, emailed or 
written, should be identified by the title of the information 
collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: The CCWIS information collection includes two 
components:
     The Automated Function List update required pursuant to 
Sec.  1355.52(i)(2);

     The Data Quality Plan update required pursuant to Sec.

costs are appropriately allocated to benefiting programs.
