Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection; 
Public Comment Request

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, the Office of the Secretary (OS), Department of 
Health and Human Services, announces plans to submit an Information 
Collection Request (ICR), described below, to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB). The ICR is for extending the use of the approved 
information collection assigned OMB control number 0937-0198, which 
expires on May 31, 2017. Prior to submitting the ICR to OMB, OS seeks 
comments from the public regarding the burden estimate, below, or any 
other aspect of the ICR.

DATES: Comments on the ICR must be received on or before March 20, 
2017.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments to 
[email protected] or by calling (202) 690-5683 or 
email [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: When submitting comments or requesting 
information, please include the document identifier 0937-0198-60D for 
reference.
    Proposed Project: Public Health Service Polices on Research 
Misconduct (42 CFR part 93)-OMB No 0937-0198-Extension--Office of 
Resource Integrity.
    Abstract: This is a request to extend the currently approved 
collection, OMB No 0937-0198, which involves two forms: PHS-6349 and 
PHS-6315. The purpose of the Institutional Assurance and Annual Report 
on Possible Research Misconduct form (PHS-6349) is to provide data on 
the amount of research misconduct activity occurring in institutions 
conducting PHS-supported research, as well as providing an annual 
assurance that those institutions have established and will follow 
administrative policies and procedures for responding to allegations of 
research misconduct that comply with the Public Health Service (PHS) 
Regulations on Research Misconduct (42 CFR part 93). The purpose of the 
Assurance of Compliance by Sub-Award Recipients form (PHS-6315) is to 
establish a similar assurance of compliance with 42 CFR part 93 for 
sub-awardee institutions, as well as provide data on the amount of 
research misconduct activity occurring in those sub-awardee 
institutions. Research misconduct is defined as receipt of an 
allegation of research misconduct and/or the conduct of an inquiry and/
or investigation into such allegations. These data enable the ORI to 
monitor institutional compliance with the PHS regulation.
    Summary of the information collection: Lastly, the forms will be 
used to respond to congressional requests for information to prevent 
misuse of Federal funds and to protect the public interest.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: Public Health Service 
Polices on Research Misconduct (42 CFR part 93)-OMB No 0937-0198-
Extension--Office of Research Integrity.
