SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose

    Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.203-7, Anti-Kickback 
Procedures, requires that all contractors have in place and follow 
reasonable procedures designed to prevent and detect in its own 
operations and direct business relationships, violations of 41 U.S.C. 
chapter 87, Kickbacks. Whenever prime contractors or subcontractors 
have reasonable grounds to believe that a violation of the statute may 
have occurred, they are required to report the possible violation in 
writing to the contracting agency inspector general, the head of the 
contracting agency if an agency does not have an inspector general, or 
the Department of Justice. The information is used to determine if any 
violations of the statute have occurred.
    There is no Governmentwide data collection process or system which 
identifies the number of alleged violations of 41 U.S.C. chapter 87, 
Kickbacks that are reported annually to agency inspectors general, the 
heads of the contracting agency if an agency does not have an inspector 
general, or the Department of Justice.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    Respondents: 100.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 100.
    Hours per Response: 20.
    Total Burden Hours: 2,000.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit and not-for-profit 
institutions.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Obtaining Copies of Proposals: Requesters may obtain a copy of the 
information collection documents from the General Services 
Administration, Regulatory Secretariat Division (MVCB), 1800 F Street 
Street NW., Washington, DC 20405, telephone 202-501-4755. Please cite
