standards specified by the Secretary of the Department of Health and 
Human Services, and to provide a report of the findings to the 
Secretary. This information is required to determine if States are 
complying with Federal child support mandates and providing the best 
services possible. The report is also intended to be used as a 
management tool to help States evaluate their programs and assess 
performance.
    Respondents: State Child Support Enforcement Agencies or the 
Department/Agency/Bureau responsible for Child Support Enforcement in
