for the Collection of Qualitative

Abstract: The proposed information
collection activity would garner
qualitative feedback from consumers,
financial institutions, and stakeholders
on a wide range of services the Bureau
provides in an efficient, timely manner,
in accordance with the Bureau’s
commitment to improving service
delivery. By qualitative feedback, the
Bureau means information that provides
useful insights on, for example,
comprehension, usability, perceptions,
and opinions, but are not statistical
surveys that yield quantitative results
that can be generalized to the
population of study. The Bureau expects
this feedback to include insights into
consumer, financial institution, 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. These collections
will allow for ongoing, collaborative,
and actionable communications
between the Bureau and consumers,
financial institutions, and stakeholders.
It will also allow feedback to contribute
directly to the improvement of program
management.
The solicitation of feedback will target
areas such as: Timeliness,
appropriateness, accuracy of
information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses
will be assessed to plan and inform
efforts to improve or maintain the
quality of service offered to the public.
If this information is not collected, vital
feedback from consumers, financial
institutions, and stakeholders on the
Bureau’s services will be unavailable.
The Bureau will only submit a
collection for approval under this
generic clearance if it meets the
following conditions:
• The collections are voluntary;
• The collections are low-burden for
respondents (based on considerations of
total burden hours, total number of
respondents, or burden-hours per
respondent) and are low-cost for both
the respondents and the Federal
Government;
• The collections are noncontroversial and do not raise issues of
concern to other Federal agencies;
• Any collection is targeted to the
solicitation of opinions from
respondents who have experience with
the program or may have experience
with the program in the near future;
• Personally identifiable information
(PII) is collected only to the extent
necessary and is not retained;

• Information gathered is intended to
be used only internally for general
service improvement and program
management purposes and is not
intended for release outside of the
Bureau (if released, the Bureau must
indicate the qualitative nature of the
information);
• Information gathered will not be
used for the purpose of substantially
informing influential policy decisions;
and
• Information gathered will yield
qualitative information; the collections
will not be designed or expected to
yield statistically reliable results or used
as though the results are generalizable to
the population of study.
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance would provide useful
information, but it would 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
target population to which
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,
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.
As a general matter, information
collections will not result in any new
system of records containing privacy
information and will not ask questions
of a sensitive nature, such as sexual
behavior and attitudes, religious beliefs,
and other matters that are commonly
considered private.
Affected Public: Individuals and
Households; Businesses, Organizations,
and other for-profit, not-for-profit
institutions; and State, Local or Tribal
Governments.
Average Expected Annual Number of
Activities: 25.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
10,000.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 1
Hour per Response.
Frequency of Response: 1 per Year.

Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 250,000.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a respondent is not
required to respond to, an information
collection unless the information
collection displays a currently valid
OMB control number.
The Bureau issued a 60-day Federal
Register notice on August 7, 2012 77 FR
47045). Comments were solicited and
continue to be invited on: (a) Whether
the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Bureau, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
Bureau’s estimate of the burden of the
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and the
assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
