Submission of the completed report is one requirement for LIHEAP grantees applying for Federal LIHEAP block grant funds. States, the District of Columbia, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico are required to report statistics for the previous Federal fiscal year on: • Assisted and applicant households, by type of LIHEAP assistance; • Assisted and applicant households, by type of LIHEAP assistance and poverty level; • Assisted households receiving only utility payment assistance; • Assisted households, regardless of the type(s) of LIHEAAP assistance; • Assisted households, by type of LIHEAP assistance, having at least one vulnerable member broken out; by a person at least 60 years or younger, disabled person, or a child five years older of younger; • Assisted households, by type of LIHEAP assistance, with least one member age 2 years or under; • Assisted households, by type of LIHEAP assistance, with at least one member ages 3 years through 5 years; and • Assisted households, regardless of the type(s) of LIHEAP assistance, having at least one member 60 years or older, disabled, or five years old or younger.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987; Administrative Procedures, Policies, and Requirements—21 CFR Part 203—(OMB Control No. 0910– 0435)—(Extension) FDA is requesting OMB approval under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520) for the reporting and recordkeeping requirements contained in the regulations implementing the Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987 (PDMA). PDMA was intended to ensure that drug products purchased by consumers are safe and effective and to avoid an unacceptable risk that counterfeit, adulterated, misbranded, subpotent, or expired drugs are sold. PDMA was enacted by Congress because there were insufficient safeguards in the drug distribution system to prevent the introduction and retail sale of substandard, ineffective, or counterfeit drugs, and that a wholesale drug diversion submarket had developed that prevented effective control over the true sources of drugs. Congress found that large amounts of drugs had been reimported into the United States as U.S. goods returned causing a health and safety risk to U.S. consumers because the drugs may become subpotent or adulterated during foreign handling and shipping. Congress also found that a ready market for prescription drug reimports had been the catalyst for a continuing series of frauds against U.S. manufacturers and had provided the cover for the importation of foreign counterfeit drugs. Congress also determined that the system of providing drug samples to physicians through manufacturers’ representatives had resulted in the sale to consumers of misbranded, expired, and adulterated pharmaceuticals. The bulk resale of below-wholesale priced prescription drugs by health care entities for ultimate sale at retail also helped to fuel the diversion market and was an unfair form of competition to wholesalers and retailers who had to pay otherwise prevailing market prices.

    The reporting and recordkeeping requirements are intended to help 
achieve the following goals: (1) To ban the reimportation of 
prescription drugs produced in the United States, except when 
reimported by the manufacturer or under FDA authorization for emergency 
medical care; (2) to ban the sale, purchase, or trade, or the offer to 
sell, purchase, or trade, of any prescription drug sample; (3) to limit 
the distribution of drug samples to practitioners licensed or 
authorized to prescribe such drugs or to pharmacies of hospitals or 
other health care entities at the request of a licensed or authorized 
practitioner; (4) to require licensed or authorized practitioners to 
request prescription drug samples in writing; (5) to mandate storage, 
handling, and recordkeeping requirements for prescription drug samples; 
(6) to prohibit, with certain exceptions, the sale, purchase, or trade 
of, or the offer to sell, purchase, or trade, prescription drugs that 
were purchased by hospitals or other health care entities, or which 
were donated or supplied at a reduced price to a charitable 
organization; and (7) to require unauthorized wholesale distributors to 
provide, prior to the wholesale distribution of a prescription drug to 
another wholesale distributor or retail pharmacy, a statement 
identifying each prior sale, purchase, or trade of the drug.
