Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request, 64391-64392 [2014-25684]

Download as PDF 64391 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 209 / Wednesday, October 29, 2014 / Notices adoptive placements based on the race, color, or national origin of any of the individuals involved. The enforcement provisions include the execution and completion of corrective action plans when a state is in violation of section 471(a)(18) of the Act. The information collection is needed: (1) To ensure compliance with title IV–E foster care eligibility requirements; (2) to monitor state plan requirements under titles IV– B and IV–E of the Act, as required by federal statute; and (3) to enforce the title IV–E anti-discrimination requirements through state corrective action plans. The resultant information will allow ACF to determine if states are in compliance with state plan requirements and are achieving desired outcomes for children and families, help ensure that claims by states for title IV– E funds are made only on behalf of title IV–E eligible children, and require states to revise applicable statutes, rules, policies and procedures, and provide proper training to staff, through the development and implementation of corrective action plans. These reviews not only address compliance with eligibility requirements but also assist states in enhancing the capacities to serve children and families. In computing the number of burden hours for this information collection, ACF based the annual burden estimates on ACF’s and states’ experiences in conducting reviews and developing program improvement plans.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. Adverse Experience Reporting for Licensed Biological Products; and General Records—21 CFR Part 600— (OMB Control Number 0910–0308)— Extension Under the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 262), FDA may only approve a biologics license application for a biological product that is safe, pure, and potent. When a biological product is approved and enters the market, the product is introduced to a larger patient population in settings different from clinical trials. New information generated during the postmarketing period offers further insight into the benefits and risks of the product, and evaluation of this information is important to insure its safe use. FDA issued the Adverse Experience Reporting (AER) requirements in part 600 (21 CFR part 600) to enable FDA to take actions necessary for the protection of the public health in response to reports of adverse experiences related to licensed biological products.1 The primary purpose of FDA’s AER system is to identify potentially serious safety problems with licensed biological products. Although the premarket approval process is meant to disclose a general safety profile of a biological product’s comparatively common adverse effects, the larger and more diverse patient populations exposed to the licensed biological product provides the opportunity to collect information on rare, latent, and long-term effects. In addition, production and/or distribution problems have contaminated biological products in the past. AER reports are obtained from a variety of sources, including manufacturers, patients, 1 Please note that throughout the regulations referenced in relation to these information collections, licensed biological products refers to biologics licensed under any provision of section 351 of the PHS Act. PO 00000 Frm 00036 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 physicians, foreign regulatory agencies, and clinical investigators. Identification of new and unexpected safety issues through the analysis of the data in AERS contributes directly to increased public health protection. For example, evaluation of these safety issues enables FDA to take focused regulatory action. Such action may include, but is not limited to, important changes to the product’s labeling (such as adding a new warning), coordination with manufacturers to ensure adequate corrective action is taken, and removal of a biological product from the market when necessary. Section 600.80(c)(1) requires licensed manufacturers or any person whose name appears on the label of a licensed biological product to report each adverse experience that is both serious and unexpected, whether foreign or domestic, as soon as possible but in no case later than 15 calendar days of initial receipt of the information by the licensed manufacturer. These reports are known as postmarketing 15-day Alert reports. This section also requires licensed manufacturers to submit any follow-up reports within 15 calendar days of receipt of new information or as requested by FDA, and if additional information is not obtainable, to maintain records of the unsuccessful steps taken to seek additional information. In addition, this section requires a person who submits an adverse action report to the licensed manufacturer, rather than FDA, to maintain a record of this action. Section 600.80(e) requires licensed manufacturers to submit a 15-day Alert report for an adverse experience obtained from a postmarketing clinical study only if the licensed manufacturer concludes that there is a reasonable possibility that the product caused the adverse experience. Section 600.80(c)(2) requires licensed manufacturers to report each adverse experience not reported in a postmarketing 15-day Alert report at quarterly intervals, for 3 years from the date of issuance of the biologics license, and then at annual intervals. The majority of these periodic reports are submitted annually since a large percentage of currently licensed biological products have been licensed longer than 3 years. Section 600.80(i) requires licensed manufacturers to maintain for a period of 10 years records of all adverse experiences known to the licensed manufacturer, including raw data and any correspondence relating to the adverse experiences. Section 600.81 requires licensed manufacturers to submit, at an interval of every 6 months, information about the quantity of the product distributed under the biologics E:\FR\FM\29OCN1.SGM 29OCN1

Proposed Projects

    Title: Intergovernmental Reference Guide (IRG).
    OMB No.: 0970-0209.
    Description: The Intergovernmental Reference Guide (IRG) is a 
centralized and automated repository of state and tribal profiles, 
which contains high-level descriptions of each state and tribe's child 
support enforcement (CSE) program. These profiles provide state and 
tribal CSE agencies, and foreign countries with an effective and 
efficient method for updating and accessing information needed to 
process intergovernmental child support cases.
    The IRG information collection activities are authorized by: (1) 42 
U.S.C. 652(a)(7), which requires OCSE to provide technical assistance 
to state child support enforcement agencies to help them establish 
effective systems for collecting child and spousal support; (2) 42 
U.S.C. 666(f), which requires states to enact the Uniform Interstate 
Family Support Act; and (3) 45 CFR 303.7, which requires state child 
support agencies to provide services in intergovernmental cases.
    Respondents: All state and tribal CSE agencies.
