Proposed Collection Title: The National Institute of Mental Health Data Archive (NDA) Data Access Closeout Report, NEW, OMB #0925-XXXX, exp., date XX/XX/XXXX, National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Need and Use of Information Collection: This request serves as notice that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) plans to continue supporting the research community's utilization of the NIMH Data Archive (NDA) through the addition of the Data Access Closeout Report, which collects information about researchers who are completing an approved term of access to shared data in the NDA. The NDA is an infrastructure for sharing human subjects research data and tools to further collaboration and scientific discovery. The information collected in the Closeout Report is needed to monitor the expiration of permissions to access NDA data, track and report on permissions and requests, confirm destruction of all copies of accessed data, ensure that the terms of access are followed, and provide appropriate attribution for data contributions, and communicate important information about the NDA.

OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 471.
