Generic Clearance for the Collection
of Qualitative Feedback on Agency
Service Delivery—NEW—Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),

Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD).
As part of a Federal Government-wide
effort to streamline the process to seek
feedback from the public on service
delivery, the CDC has submitted a

Generic Information Collection Request
(Generic ICR): ‘‘Generic Clearance for
the Collection of Qualitative Feedback
on Agency Service Delivery’’ to OMB for
approval under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et.
seq.).
Background and Brief Description
The information collection activity
will garner qualitative customer and
stakeholder feedback in an efficient,
timely manner, in accordance with the
Administration’s commitment to
improving service delivery. By
qualitative feedback we mean
information that provides useful
insights on perceptions and opinions,
but are not statistical surveys that yield
quantitative results that can be
generalized to the population of study.
This feedback will provide insights into
customer 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
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.
In accordance with 5 CFR 1320.8(d),
Vol. 79, No. 83/Wednesday, April 30,
2014, a 60-day notice for public
comment was published in the Federal
Register. No public comments were
received in response to this notice.
This is a new collection of
information. Respondents will take
online surveys or participate in Web site
usability testing, interviews, discussion
groups, or focus groups. Below is
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), National Center for
Immunization and Respiratory Diseases
(NCIRD) projected annualized estimate
for the next three years. There is no cost
to respondents other than their time.
The estimated annualized burden hours
for this data collection activity are
6,588.
will allow for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communications between the
Agency and its customers and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback
to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance will provide useful
information, but it will 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
