This ICR
seeks PRA authority for focus groups to
be used for evaluating the effectiveness
of Employee Retirement Income
Security Act (ERISA) section 408(b)(2)
disclosure requirements. The ERISA
requires a plan fiduciary, when
selecting and monitoring service
providers and plan investments, to act
prudently and solely in the interest of
plan participants and beneficiaries. A
responsible plan fiduciary must also
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

ensure that any arrangement with a
service provider is reasonable and that
only reasonable compensation is paid
for services. Fundamental to the ability
of fiduciaries to discharge these
obligations is obtaining information
sufficient to enable them to make
informed decisions about an employee
benefit plan’s services, the costs of such
services, and the service providers. This
ICR is designed to explore current
practices and effects of a final regulation
published in the Federal Register on
February 3, 2012, to implement section
408(b)(2) and to gather information
about the need for a guide, summary, or
similar tool to help a responsible plan
fiduciary navigate through and
understand the disclosures. See 77 FR
5632. The EBSA intends to use
information collected from the focus
groups: (1) To assess responsible plan
fiduciaries’ experience in receiving the
disclosures the 408(b)(2) regulations
require; (2) to assess the effectiveness of
the disclosures in helping plan
fiduciaries make decisions; (3) to
determine how well plan fiduciaries
understand the disclosures, especially
in the small plan marketplace (100
participants or less); and (4) to evaluate
whether, and how, a guide, summary, or
similar tool would help a fiduciary
understand the disclosures. The focus
group results will be used to inform and
support a notice of final rulemaking for
the guide requirement.
This proposed information collection
is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a
collection of information, and the public
is generally not required to respond to
an information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
collection of information does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. For
additional information, see the related
notice published in the Federal Register
on March 12, 2014 (79 FR 14085).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within thirty (30) days of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments
should mention OMB ICR Reference
Number 201408–1210–004. The OMB is
particularly interested in comments
