The OMB is particularly interested in
comments which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.

Description: On January 29, 2001,
President George W. Bush issued
Executive Order 13198, creating the
Office for Faith-Based and Community
Initiatives in the White House and
centers for faith-based and community
initiatives (CFBCI) in the Departments
of Labor (DOL), Health and Human
Services (HHS), Housing and Urban
Development (HUD), Education (ED),
and Justice (DOJ). President Bush
charged the departmental centers with
identifying statutory, regulatory, and
bureaucratic barriers that stand in the
way of effective faith-based and
community organizations, and to
ensure, consistent with the law, that
these organizations have equal
opportunity to compete for Federal
funding and other support.
In early 2002, the CFBCI and ETA
developed and issued Solicitations for
PO 00000
Frm 00060
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
66555
Grant Application (SGA) to engage
grassroots organizations in our
workforce system-building. These SGAs
were designed to assist faith-based and
community organizations in delivering
social services and strengthening their
existing partnerships with the local
One-Stop Career Center system, while
providing additional points of entry for
customers into that system.
These 2002 grants embodied the
Department’s principal strategy for
implementing the Executive Order:
Creating new avenues through which
qualified organizations could participate
more fully under the Workforce
Investment Act (WIA), while applying
their particular strengths and assets in
providing services to our customers.
These solicitations also were derived
from an ETA–CFBCI mutual premise
that the involvement of faith-based and
community organizations can both
complement and supplement the efforts
of local workforce investment systems
in being accessible to and serving the
training, job and career-support needs of
many of our citizens.
Many faith-based and community
organizations offer unique services and
support networks that can contribute to
our mutual system-building endeavors;
are trusted institutions within our
poorest neighborhoods; and are home to
a large number of volunteers who bring
not only the transformational power of
personal relationships to the provision
of social service, but also a sustained
allegiance to the well-being and selfsufficiency of the participants they
serve. Through their daily work and
specific programs, these organizations
strive to achieve some common
purposes shared with government—
reduction of welfare dependency,
attainment of occupational skills, and
entry and retention of all our citizens in
good-paying jobs.
The President’s Management Agenda
direct the Department of Labor Center
for Faith-Based and Community
Initiatives to evaluate and examine the
impact and outcomes of departmental
programs that include faith-based and
community non-profit organizations
(FBCO). DOL CFBCI intends to use this
data to examine the impact that
receiving and managing Federal grants
has on grassroots, faith-based and
community organizations.
Faith-based and community
organizations benefit from having equal
access to Federal funds. DOL CFBCI
intends to use this data to examine the
extent to which faith-based and
community organizations are able to use
the Federal funds (awarded through the
ETA Grants for Grassroots Organizations
from 2002 to 2005) as leverage to

Federal-State Unemployment
Compensation Program: Notice of
Federal Agencies With Adequate
Alternative Safeguards To Satisfy the
Confidentiality Requirement of 20 CFR
603.9(d)
Employment and Training
Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Notice of Federal agencies with
adequate alternative safeguards.
AGENCY:
rmajette on PROD1PC67 with NOTICES1
SUMMARY: The Employment and
Training Administration interprets
Federal law requirements pertaining to
the Federal-State unemployment
compensation (UC) program. Section
303(a)(1), Social Security Act, as
implemented at 20 CFR part 603 (71 FR
56830), generally requires States to
maintain the confidentiality of UC
information.
Section 603.9 of 20 CFR requires
States and State UC agencies to assure
that recipients of confidential UC
information have certain safeguards in
place before any confidential
information may be disclosed. Section
603.9(d) provides that States are not
required to apply these safeguard and

security arrangements to a Federal
agency which the Department of Labor
(Department) has determined, by notice
published in the Federal Register, to
have in place safeguards adequate to
satisfy the requirements of § 603.9.
The Department has determined that
the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has
in place such safeguards for purposes of
tax administration, including
administration of the Federal
unemployment tax and the Health
Coverage Tax Credit. Specifically,
Section 6103 of the Internal Revenue
Code and IRS regulations on the
confidentiality of tax return information
(26 CFR 301.6103(a)–1 et seq.) are
sufficient to protect the confidentiality
of information consistent with the
Department’s regulation.
The Department has also determined
that wage and claim information
disclosed to the Department of Health
and Human Services for purposes of the
National Directory of New Hires is
protected by a ‘‘security plan’’ which
provides safeguards adequate to meet
the requirements of the Department’s
regulation. Further, laws governing
information in the National Directory of
New Hires impose strict controls on
redisclosure and disposal of
information. See, e.g., 42 U.S.C. 653(i),
(j), (l), and (m).
This notice is published to inform the
public of the Department’s
determination with respect to these
agencies.
