Description: In accordance with
Section 413(i) of the Social Security Act
and 45 CFR part 284, the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS)
intends to reinstate the following
information collection requirements.
For instances when Census Bureau data
show that a States child poverty rate
increased by 5 percent or more from one
year to the next, a State may submit
independent estimates of its child
poverty rate. If HHS determines that the
States independent estimates are not
more reliable than the Census Bureau
estimates, HHS will require the State to
submit an assessment of the impact of
the TANF program(s) in the State on the
child poverty rate. If HHS determines
from the assessment and other
information that the child poverty rate
in the State increased as a result of the
TANF program(s) in the State, HHS will
then require the State to submit a
corrective action plan.
Respondents: The respondents are the
50 States and District of Columbia;
when reliable Census Bureau data
become available for the Territories,
additional respondents might include
Guam, Puerto Rico and the Virgin
Islands.

Title: Protection and Advacacy (P&A)
Voting Access Application and Annual
Report.
OMB No.: 0970–0326.
Description: This is a revision to
include the application for the
previously cleared Help America Vote
Act (HAVA) Annual report.
An application is required by Federal
statute (the Help America Vote Act
(HAVA) of 2002, Pub. L. 107–252,
Section 291, Payments for Protection
and Advocacy Systems, 42 U.S.C.
15461). Each State Protection &
Advocacy (P&A) System must prepare
an application in accordance with the
program announcement.
There is no application kit; the P&As
application may be in the format of its
choice. It must, however, be signed by
the P&As Executive Director or the
designated representative, and contain
the assurances as outlined under
Part I.C. Use of Funds. The P&As
designated representatives may signify
their agreement with the conditions/
assurances by signing and returning the
assurance document Attachment B,
found in Part IV of this Instruction. The
assurance document signed by the
Executive Director of the P&A, or other
designated person, should be submitted
with the application to the
Administration on Developmental
Disabilities.
An annual report is required by
Federal statute (the Help America Vote
Act (HAVA) of 2002, Pub. L. 107–252,
Section 291, Payments for Protection
and Advocacy Systems, 42 U.S.C.
15461). Each State Protection &
Advocacy (P&A) System must prepare
and submit an annual report at the end
of every fiscal year. The report
addresses the activities conducted with
the funds provided during the year. The
information from the annual report will
be aggregated into an annual profile of
how HAVA funds have been spent. The
report will also provide an overview of
the P&A goals and accomplishments
and permit the Administration on
Developmental Disabilities to track
progress to monitor grant activities.
Respondents: Protection & Advocacy
Systems—All States, the District of
Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin
Islands, American Samoa, and Guam.
