Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 183 / Friday, September 24, 2021 / Notices
Early Childhood Home Visiting
(MIECHV) Program when the
participating children are in
kindergarten. This Federal Register
notice is seeking to extend data
collection for the kindergarten followup. The original Federal Register
notices for the MIHOPE–K data
collection were titled under MIHOPELong-Term Follow-Up (MIHOPE–LT).
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
requirements 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
Administration for Children and
Families, Office of Planning, Research,
and Evaluation, 330 C Street SW,
Washington, DC 20201, Attn: OPRE
Reports Clearance Officer. All requests,
emailed or written, should be identified
by the title of the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: This request for an
extension is to complete the following
data collection activities for MIHOPE–K:
(1) A survey with the child’s primary
caregiver (who will be the mother if she
is available), (2) direct assessments of
child development, (3) surveys with the
child’s teacher, (4) a direct assessment
of the caregiver, (5) videotaped
interactions between the caregiver and
child, (6) a caregiver website to provide
current contact information, (7) state
child welfare records, and (8) school
records. In addition to collecting these
data, the MIHOPE–K project will
continue to maintain up-to-date consent
forms for the collection of
administrative data. Future information
collection requests and related Federal
Register notices will describe future
data collection efforts for this project.
Data collected during the kindergarten
follow-up study is being used to
estimate the effects of MIECHV-funded
programs on the following seven
domains: (1) Maternal health, (2) child
health, (3) child development and
school performance, (4) child
maltreatment, (5) parenting, (6) crime or
domestic violence, and (7) family
economic self-sufficiency.
Respondents: The respondents in this
extension will include 1,391 families
who have not yet participated in the
kindergarten follow-up study activities.
We have assumed that only 25 percent
of respondents will complete the
caregiver website. We will also obtain
child welfare data from 11 MIHOPE
states and school records data from state
and local agencies. We have assumed
that we will obtain data from 11 states
and 5 local education agencies.

information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the proposed collection
of information; (c) the quality, utility,

on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology. Consideration will be given
to comments and suggestions submitted
within 60 days of this publication.

Section 564 of the FD&C Act (21
U.S.C. 360bbb-3) allows FDA to
strengthen the public health protections
against biological, chemical, nuclear,
and radiological agents. Among other
things, section 564 of the FD&C Act
allows FDA to authorize the use of an
unapproved medical product or an
unapproved use of an approved medical
product in certain situations. On June 1,
2020, FDA issued an EUA to Gravity for
the Gravity Diagnostics COVID–19
Assay. Notice of the issuance of this
Authorization was published in the
Federal Register on November 20, 2020
(85 FR 74346), as required by section
564(h)(1) of the FD&C Act. On August
21, 2020, FDA issued an EUA to
Guardant for the Guardant-19. Notice of
the issuance of this Authorization was
published in the Federal Register on
November 20, 2020 (85 FR 74346), as
required by section 564(h)(1) of the
FD&C Act. On December 17, 2020, FDA
issued an EUA to Matmacorp, for the
MatMaCorp COVID–19 2SF Test. Notice
of the issuance of this Authorization
was published in the Federal Register
on April 23, 2021 (86 FR 21749), as
required by section 564(h)(1) of the
FD&C Act. The authorization of a device
for emergency use under section 564 of
the FD&C Act may, pursuant to section
564(g)(2) of the FD&C Act, be revoked
when the criteria under section 564(c) of
the FD&C Act for issuance of such
authorization are no longer met (section
564(g)(2)(B) of the FD&C Act), or other
circumstances make such revocation
appropriate to protect the public health
or safety (section 564(g)(2)(C) of the
FD&C Act).
II. EUA Revocation Requests
On March 11, 2021, and reconfirmed
July 12, 2021, Gravity requested the
revocation of, and on July 21, 2021, FDA
revoked, the Authorization for the
Gravity Diagnostics COVID–19 Assay.
Because Gravity notified FDA that it is
no longer using the Gravity Diagnostics
COVID–19 Assay and requested FDA
revoke the Authorization, FDA has
determined that it is appropriate to
protect the public health or safety to
revoke this Authorization. On July 29,
2021, Matmacorp requested the
revocation of, and on August 3, 2021,
FDA revoked, the Authorization for the
MatMaCorp COVID–19 2SF Test.

later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post
the background material on its website prior to the meeting, the
background material will be made publicly available on FDA's

website at the time of the advisory committee meeting. Background
material and the link to the online teleconference meeting room will be
available at https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm. Scroll down to the appropriate advisory committee meeting
link. The meeting will include slide presentations with audio
components to allow the presentation of materials in a manner that most
closely resembles an in-person advisory committee meeting.
Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or
views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee.
All electronic and written submissions submitted to the Docket (see
ADDRESSES) on or before November 23, 2021, will be provided to the
committee. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled between
approximately 2:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Those individuals
interested in making formal oral presentations should notify the
contact person and submit a brief statement of the general nature of
the evidence or arguments they wish to present, the names and addresses
of proposed participants, and an indication of the approximate time
requested to make their presentation on or before November 15, 2021.
Time allotted for each presentation may be limited. If the number of
registrants requesting to speak is greater than can be reasonably
accommodated during the scheduled open public hearing session, FDA may
conduct a lottery to determine the speakers for the scheduled open
public hearing session. The contact person will notify interested
persons regarding their request to speak by November 16, 2021.
