BILLING CODE 4163–18–P SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Dated: September 17, 2014. Ron A. Otten, Acting Deputy Associate Director for Science, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Generic Clearance for the Collection of Qualitative Feedback on FDA Service Delivery—(OMB Control Number 0910– 0697)—Extension The information collection activity will garner qualitative customer and stakeholder feedback in an efficient, VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:07 Sep 19, 2014 Jkt 232001 PO 00000 Frm 00033 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 56587 timely manner, in accordance with the Administration’s commitment to improving service delivery. By qualitative feedback, FDA means information that provides useful insight on perceptions and opinions, not statistical surveys that yield quantitative results that can be generalized to the population of study. This feedback will provide insight into customer or stakeholder perceptions; experiences and expectations; provide an early warning of issues with service; or focus attention on areas where communication, training, or changes in operations might improve delivery of products or services. This information collection will allow for ongoing collaborative and actionable communications among the FDA and its customers and stakeholders. It will also allow feedback to contribute directly to the improvement of program management. Feedback collected under this generic clearance will provide useful information, but it will not yield data that can be generalized to the overall population. This type of generic clearance for qualitative information will not be used for quantitative information collections that are designed to yield reliably actionable results, such as monitoring trends over time or documenting program performance. Such data uses require more rigorous designs that address the following: The target population to which the generalizations will be made, the sampling frame, the sample design (including stratification and clustering), the precision requirements or power calculations that justify the proposed sample size, the expected response rate, the methods for assessing potential nonresponse bias, the protocols for data collection, and any testing procedures that were or will be undertaken prior to fielding the study. Depending on the degree of influence the results are likely to have, such collections may still be eligible for submission for other generic mechanisms that are designed to yield quantitative results. In the Federal Register of April 29, 2014 (79 FR 23980), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. No comments were received. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: E:\FR\FM\22SEN1.SGM 22SEN1
