Abstract: Assistant Secretary for Health, Office for Human Research Protections is requesting Office of Management and Budget, OMB approval on a three year extension of the Federalwide Assurance (FWA). The FWA is designed to provide a simplified procedure for institutions engaged in HHS-conducted or supported research to satisfy the assurance requirements of Section 491(a) of the Public Health Service Act and HHS Regulations for the protection of human subjects at 45 CFR 46.103. The respondents are institutions engaged in human subject research that is conducted or supported by HHS. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: OHRP is the HHS component charged with fulfilling the statutory mandates of these provisions of the PHS Act and enforcing HHS regulations at 45 CFR part 46. The FWA provides a simplified assurance process that replaced the prior assurance mechanisms used by OHRP, all of which were more complicated and burdensome than the FWA. The information collected by OHRP through the FWA is the minimum necessary to satisfy the assurance requirements of the PHS Act and the requirements of HHS regulations at 45 CFR 46.103. Likely Respondents: Individuals or households, business or other for-profit, not-for-profit institutions, Federal, State, Local, or Tribal Governments.
