process the complaint more efficiently.

create a record of the consumer’s

information that can be used to resolve
the consumer’s issues and provide a
database of information that is
incorporated into the OCC’s supervisory
process.

of information;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(d) Ways to minimize the burden of
the collection on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
