SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Revisions to § 17.643 of Title 38, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)

In a final rule published in the Federal Register (FR) on March 2, 2023, at 88 FR 13033, VA added the OMB collection number to § 17.643 for the PREL, which is a program in which VA repays educational loans to individuals who pursued a program of study leading to a degree in psychiatric medicine and who are seeking employment in VA. The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507). requires that VA consider the impact of paperwork and other information collection burdens imposed on the public. Under 44 U.S.C. 3507(a), an agency may not collect or sponsor the collection of information, nor may it impose an information collection requirement unless it displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. See also 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3)(vi). We had indicated in the DATES section of the final rule that the effective date for the OMB collection number was for § 17.644. However, the correct section for the OMB collection is § 17.643, not § 17.644. This document corrects the DATES section of that rule to reference the correct document and reflect the full history of the regulation.
