policy to remain dynamic and be
responsive to changing circumstances
that affect UIOs. It is expected that the
confer process may result in the need to
update the policy from time to time.
5–26.7 Deliberative Process Privilege
Nothing in this Policy waives the
Government’s deliberative process
privilege. Examples of the government’s
deliberative process privilege are as
follows:
(1) When the Secretary, HHS, is
specifically requested by a member or
members of Congress to respond to or
report on proposed legislation, the
development of such responses and of
related policy is a part of the Executive
Branch’s deliberative process privilege
and should remain confidential.
(2) In specified instances, when
Congress requires the HHS to work with
UIOs on the development of
recommendations that may require
legislation, such as reports,
recommendations, or other products
that are developed independent of a
Department position, the development
of which is governed by Office of
Management and Budget Circular A–19.

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND

Submission for OMB Review; 30-day
Comment Request; A Generic
Submission for Formative Research,
Pre-Testing, Stakeholder Measures
and Advocate Forms at NCI
Under the provisions of
Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the National
Institutes of Health (NIH), has submitted
SUMMARY:
NCI’s authorized programs. It is
beneficial for NCI, through the OAR, to
pretest strategies, concepts, activities
and materials while they are under
development. Additionally,
administrative forms are a necessary
part of collecting demographic
information and areas of interest for
advocates. Pre-testing, or formative
evaluation, helps ensure that the
products and services developed by NCI
have the greatest capacity of being
received, understood, and accepted by
their target audiences. Since OAR is
responsible for matching advocates to
NCI programs and initiatives across the
cancer continuum, it is necessary to
measure the satisfaction of both internal
and external stakeholders with this
collaboration. This customer satisfaction
research helps ensure the relevance,
utility, and appropriateness of the many
initiatives and products that OAR and
NCI produce. The OAR will use a
variety of qualitative (focus groups,
interviews) and quantitative (paper,
phone, in-person, and web surveys)
methodologies to conduct this research,
allowing NCI to: 1) Understand
characteristics (attitudes, beliefs, and
behaviors) of the intended target
audience and use this information in the
development of effective strategies,
concepts, activities; 2) use a feedback
loop to help refine, revise, and enhance
OAR’s efforts—ensuring that they have
the greatest relevance, utility,
appropriateness, and impact for/to
target audiences; and 3) expend limited
program resource dollars wisely and
effectively. The anticipated individual
respondents will consist of: Adult
cancer research advocates, members of
the public, health care professionals,
and organizational representatives.
OMB approval is requested for 3
years. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
1,025.
