Description—which defines adverse
events of interest in the retail pharmacy
setting—is available. Other elements of
the Common Formats, including
aggregate reports and technical
specifications, will be developed
following revision of the Common
Formats for Retail Pharmacy based on
public comment and NQF advice.
Information on how to comment and
provide feedback on the Common
Formats for Retail Pharmacy is available
at the NQF Web site: https://www.quality
forum.org/Project_Pages/Common_
Formats_for_Patient_Safety_Data.aspx.
Commenting on HAI Module for
Common Formats for Surveillance
Common Formats addressing all
QSRS modules—except for those for
HAIs—were made available for public
comment in 2014. During the
intervening time, AHRQ was able to
consult with CDC in order to refine the
HAI module. When integrated with the
remaining modules of QSRS, the HAI
module will allow completion of the
first version of QSRS.
The Agency is specifically interested
in obtaining feedback from both the
private and public sectors on the HAI
module for Common Formats for
Surveillance. Only the Event
Description—which defines six HAI
adverse events of interest—is available.
Based on public comment and NQF
advice, AHRQ will finalize this module,
which will be incorporated into QSRS
software. Information on how to
comment and provide feedback on the
HAI module is available at the NQF
Web site: https://www.qualityforum.org/
Project_Pages/Common_Formats_for_
Patient_Safety_Data.aspx.
AHRQ appreciates the time and effort
individuals invest in providing
comments. The Agency will review and
consider all feedback received to help
guide the development of a revised
version. The process for updating and
refining the formats will continue to be
an iterative one.
Future versions of the Common
Formats are planned to be developed for
additional ambulatory settings, such as
ambulatory surgery centers and
physician and practitioner offices. More
information on the Common Formats
can be obtained through AHRQ’s PSO
Web site: https://www.pso.ahrq.gov/.

Title: National Youth in Transition
Database and Youth Outcome Survey.
OMB No.: 0970–0340.
Description: The Foster Care
Independence Act of 1999 (42 U.S.C.
1305 et seq.) as amended by Public Law
106–169 requires State child welfare
agencies to collect and report to the
Administration on Children and
Families (ACF) data on the
characteristics of youth receiving
independent living services and
information regarding their outcomes.
The regulation implementing the
National Youth in Transition Database,
listed in 45 CFR 1356.80, contains
standard data collection and reporting
requirements for States to meet the law’s
requirements. ACF will use the
information collected under the
regulation to track independent living
services, assess the collective outcomes
of youth, and potentially to evaluate
State performance with regard to those
outcomes consistent with the law’s
mandate.
Respondents: State agencies that
administer the John H. Chafee Foster

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
FDA is announcing the availability of
a guidance for industry entitled
‘‘Acceptability of Draft Labeling to
Support ANDA Approval.’’ This
guidance is being issued consistent with
FDA’s Good Guidance Practices (GGP)
regulation (§ 10.115 (21 CFR 10.115)).
This guidance is being implemented
without prior public comment because
the Agency has determined that prior
public participation is not feasible or
appropriate (§ 10.115(g)(2)). The Agency
made this determination because the
guidance presents a less burdensome
policy consistent with the public health.
Although this guidance document is
immediately in effect, it remains subject
to comment in accordance with the
Agency’s GGP regulation.
This guidance provides
recommendations and information
related to the submission of copies of
proposed labeling with ANDAs under
section 505(j)(2)(A)(v) (21 U.S.C.
355(j)(2)(A)(v)) of the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act and FDA’s
implementing regulations (21 CFR
314.94(a)(8)). This guidance clarifies
that OGD will accept and approve
ANDAs based on draft labeling.
In the past, OGD generally asked
applicants to submit copies of FPL as
opposed to draft labeling before
receiving ANDA approval. OGD
generally requested FPL before
approving ANDAs because this version
of the labeling reflected an accurate
presentation of both the content and the
formatting of the labeling.
As ANDA labeling submissions have
evolved over time, particularly with
respect to the submission of electronic
versions of labeling, OGD has found that
draft versions of labeling can enable an
appropriate labeling review before FPL
is produced.
Given changes in submission
practices and the applicable regulations
over time, OGD is clarifying that it will
approve ANDAs on the basis of draft
E:\FR\FM\06OCN1.SGM
06OCN1
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 193 / Tuesday, October 6, 2015 / Notices
labeling, provided that OGD is able to
make a determination that the draft
labeling complies with applicable
requirements (other than editorial or
similar minor deficiencies).
The guidance represents the Agency’s
current thinking on the acceptability of
draft labeling to support ANDA
approval. It does not establish any rights
for any person and is not binding on
FDA or the public. You can use an
alternative approach if it satisfies the
requirements of the applicable statutes
and regulations.
