As a general matter, these information
collections will not result in any new
system of records containing privacy

The OCC used this collection twice in
2013 to obtain feedback from vendors
following OCC outreach sessions. The
collection allowed OCC business units
to solicit feedback from participants at
outreach events, access the participants’
experiences, and adjust future outreach
events. Specifically, it allowed the OCC
to generate Congressional reports on the
‘‘successes achieved and challenges
faced by the agency in operating
minority and women outreach
programs.’’ 12 U.S.C. 5452(e).

Federal savings associations use these
required reports and records for internal
management control purposes and
examiners use them to determine
whether Federal savings associations are
being operated safely, soundly, and in
compliance with regulations. The
absence of these reporting and record
keeping requirements would make it
difficult for institutions to establish
prudent internal controls and limit the
ability of examiners to determine the
accurate performance and condition of
Federal savings associations.

Burden Estimates:
Estimated Number of Respondents:
500.
Estimated Total Burden: 68,345

Comments: The OCC issued a Federal
Register notice regarding the collection
for 60 days of comment on February 14,
