through the Healthy Marriage (HM) and
Responsible Fatherhood (RF) Grant
Programs. ACF required the 2015 cohort
of HMRF grantees—which received 5year grants in September 2015—to
collect and report performance
measures about program operations,
services, and clients served (OMB
#0970–0460). A performance measures
data collection system called nFORM
(Information, Family Outcomes,
Reporting, and Management) was
implemented with the 2015 cohort to
improve the efficiency of data collection
and reporting and the quality of data.
This system allows for streamlined and
standardized submission of grantee
performance data through regular
progress reports and supports granteeled and federal research projects. ACF
will continue performance measure and
other data collection activities for the
HMRF grant program with a new cohort
of grantees who received 5-year awards
in September 2020. ACF is requesting
comment on a new data collection to
support these activities with the 2020
HMRF grantee cohort. ACF has made
changes to the previous cohort’s data
collection instruments and performance
reports for use in the new cohort. This
new grantee cohort is expected to begin
collecting performance measure data
and reporting to ACF in April 2021.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
ACF is soliciting public comment on the
specific aspects of the information
collection described above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed
collection of information can be
obtained and comments may be
forwarded by emailing
OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov.
Alternatively, copies can also be
obtained by writing to the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: ACF proposes to collect a
set of performance measures from all
HMRF grantees. These measures collect
standardized information in the
following areas:
• Applicant characteristics;
• Program operations;
• Service delivery; and
• Participant outcomes:
Æ Entrance survey, with five versions:
(1) HM Program Entrance Survey for
Adult-Focused Programs, (2) HM
Program Entrance Survey for YouthFocused Programs, (3) RF Program
Entrance Survey for Community-Based
Fathers, (4) RF Program Entrance Survey
for Community-Based Mothers, and (5)
RF Program Entrance Survey for
Reentering Fathers.
Æ Exit survey, with five versions: (1)
HM Program Exit Survey for AdultFocused Programs, (2) HM Program Exit
Survey for Youth-Focused Programs, (3)
RF Program Exit Survey for CommunityBased Fathers, (4) RF Program Exit
Survey for Community-Based Mothers,
and (5) RF Program Exit Survey for
Reentering Fathers.
The measures used by the 2015
grantee cohort were developed in 2014
after extensive review of the research
literature and grantees’ past measures.
The performance measures, data
collection instruments, and data
collection system were revised in 2020
based on a targeted analysis of existing
measures, feedback from key
stakeholders, and discussions with ACF
staff and the 2015 cohort of grantees.
ACF required the 2015 cohort of
grantees to submit data on these
standardized measures on a quarterly
basis and proposes the same
requirement for the 2020 cohort. In
addition to the performance measures
mentioned above, ACF proposes to
repeat collection for these data
submissions:
• Semi-annual Performance Progress
Report (PPR), with two versions: (1)
Performance Progress Report for HM

applicants and participants (participants

John Kapoor: Final Debarment Order
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Notice.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
20:03 Nov 27, 2020
Jkt 253001
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA or Agency) is
issuing an order under the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C
Act) permanently debarring John
Kapoor from providing services in any
capacity to a person that has an
approved or pending drug product
application. FDA bases this order on a
finding that John Kapoor was convicted
of a felony under Federal law for
conduct that relates to the regulation of
a drug product under the FD&C Act.
John Kapoor was given notice of the
proposed permanent debarment and an
opportunity to request a hearing to show
why he should not be debarred. Mr.
Kapoor, through counsel, submitted a
letter to FDA, which commented on
some of the factual circumstances
surrounding the case. In the letter, he
also stated that he did not intend to
request a hearing nor, however, would
he acquiesce to debarment. As of August
26, 2020 (30 days after receipt of the
notice), Mr. Kapoor has not requested a
hearing. His failure to request a hearing
constitutes a waiver of his right to a
hearing concerning this action.
DATES: This order is applicable
November 30, 2020.
ADDRESSES: Submit applications for
special termination of debarment to the
Dockets Management Staff (HFA–305),
Food and Drug Administration, 5630
Fishers Lane, Rm. 1061, Rockville, MD

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 306(a)(2)(B) of the FD&C Act
(21 U.S.C. 335a(a)(2)(B)) requires
debarment of an individual from
providing services in any capacity to a
person that has an approved or pending
drug product application if FDA finds
that the individual has been convicted
of a felony under Federal law for
conduct relating to the regulation of any
drug product under the FD&C Act. On
January 23, 2020, Mr. Kapoor was
convicted as defined in section 306(l)(1)
of the FD&C Act when judgment was
entered against him in the U.S. District
Court for the District of Massachusetts,
after a jury verdict, to one count of
Racketeering Conspiracy in violation of
18 U.S.C. 1962(d). The pattern of
racketeering activity he was convicted
of included engaging in multiple acts of
mail fraud (18 U.S.C. 1341) and wire
fraud (18 U.S.C. 1343).
The factual basis for this conviction is
as follows: Mr. Kapoor was the founder
and majority owner of Insys
Therapeutics Inc. (Insys), a Delaware
Corporation, with headquarters in
Chandler, Arizona. In addition, he held
executive management positions at
Insys, including Executive Chairman of
the Board of Directors and, for a time,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Description: ACF proposes to collect a set

standardized information in the following areas:
Applicant characteristics;
Program operations;
Service delivery; and
Participant outcomes:
[cir] Entrance survey, with five versions: (1) HM Program Entrance
Survey for Adult-Focused Programs, (2) HM Program Entrance Survey for
Youth-Focused Programs, (3) RF Program Entrance Survey for Community-

Grantees in the new cohort will also be required to engage in
continuous quality improvement (CQI) planning and implementation using
a proposed CQI plan template developed by ACF. The estimated burden for
completing and updating this template is included in the table below.
