II. Desired Focus of Comments
Currently VETS is soliciting
comments concerning a request to
extend the currently approved
information collection request. The
Department of Labor 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 submissions
of responses.
III. Current Actions
The Department of Labor seeks
approval of the extension of the
currently approved information
collection request in order to carry out
its responsibilities to administer and
enforce compliance with the contractor
reporting requirements under VEVRAA,
as amended by the JVA.
Type of Review: Extension without
change of currently approved collection.
Agency: Veterans’ Employment and
Training Service.
