SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Description: The Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Tribal 
Annual Report (ACF-700) requests Tribal Lead Agencies (TLAs) to provide 
annual Tribal aggregate information on services provided through the 
CCDF, which is required by CCDF regulations (45 FR parts 98 and 99). 
The revised ACF-700 report consists of an introductory section that 
provides program characteristics and two parts: (1) Administrative 
Data, and (2) Tribal Narrative. The content and format of the entire 
form have been revised to address Child Care and Development Block 
Grant (CCDBG) Act of 2014 changes and to reduce the reporting burden to 
TLAs.
    Information from the ACF-700 will be included in the CCDF Report to 
Congress, as appropriate, and will be shared with TLAs to inform them 
of CCDF-funded activities.
    Respondents: Tribal Governments.
