    Abstract In subsection 1032(e) of the Dodd-Frank Act, 12 U.S.C. 
5532(e), Congress gave the Bureau authority to provide certain legal 
protections to companies to conduct trial disclosure programs. This 
authority can be used to help further the Bureau's statutory objective, 
stated in subsection 1021(b)(5) of the Act, to ``facilitate access and 
innovation'' in the ``markets for consumer financial products and 
services.'' In accordance with this authority, the Bureau published its 
Policy to Encourage Trial Disclosure Programs (Policy) on October 10, 
2013 (78 FR 64389). Under the Policy, an application for permission to 
conduct a trial disclosure program should include certain information. 
A supporting statement for the existing information collections under 
this control number may be found here at https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAViewDocument?ref_nbr=201605-3170-011. In addition the 
Bureau has published a notice in the Federal Register on September 10, 
2018, 83 FR 45574 proposing revisions to the Policy (Proposal). The 
Proposal and comments thereon may be viewed at https://www.regulations.gov/docket?D=CFPB-2018-0023. The Bureau is currently 
reviewing those comments in as it contemplates any changes or revisions 
to the Proposal.
    Request for comments: Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the Bureau, including whether the information will 
have practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the Bureau's estimate of 
the burden of the collection of information, including the validity of 
the methods and the assumptions used; (c) Ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) Ways 
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other 
forms of information technology. Comments submitted in response to this 
notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB 
approval. All comments will become a matter of public record.
