SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title of Collection: Generic Information Collection Plan for 
Surveys Using the Consumer Credit Panel.
    OMB Control Number: 3170-XXXX.
    Type of Review: Request for a new OMB Control Number.
    Affected Public: Individuals and Households.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 8,500.

    Abstract: Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer 
Protection Act, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is charged 
with researching, analyzing, and reporting on topics relating to the 
Bureau's mission, including consumer behavior, consumer awareness, and 
developments in markets for consumer financial products and services. 
In order to improve its understanding of how consumers engage with 
financial markets, the CFPB uses the Consumer Credit Panel, a 
proprietary sample dataset from one of the national credit reporting 
agencies, as a frame to survey people about their experiences in 
consumer credit markets. The Bureau seeks to obtain approval for a 
generic information collection plan for these types of surveys. Survey 
responses will be used for general, formative, and informational 
research on consumer financial markets and consumers' use of financial 
products and will not directly provide the basis for specific 
policymaking at the Bureau.
    Request for Comments: The Bureau issued a 60-day Federal Register 
notice on March 3, 2015 (80 FR 15194). Comments were solicited and 
continue to be 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 Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) approval. All comments will become a matter of public 
record.

    Dated: June 18, 2015.

Chief Information Officer, Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection.
