Proposed Information Collection Activity; Child Welfare Study To Enhance Equity With Data (New Collection)
The Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE) within the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is proposing a new information collection for the Child Welfare Study to Enhance Equity with Data (CW-SEED). The project aims to understand how and to what extent data are used to explore equity in service delivery and child and family outcomes, to identify barriers or problematic data practices, and to explore efforts by child welfare agencies and their partners to use data to reduce barriers across the continuum of child welfare services.
Institutional Review Boards; Cooperative Research
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is proposing to replace current requirements for FDA-regulated cooperative research with new requirements that would require any institution located in the United States participating in FDA-regulated cooperative research to rely on review and approval by a single institutional review board (IRB) for that portion of the research that is conducted in the United States, with some exceptions. FDA is also proposing an IRB recordkeeping requirement for research that takes place at an institution in which IRB oversight is conducted by an IRB that is not operated by the institution. FDA is proposing these revisions to streamline the IRB review process and decrease administrative burdens and inefficiencies for investigators and IRBs without compromising human subject protections. This proposed rule would harmonize FDA's requirements for cooperative research and IRB records, to the extent practicable and consistent with statutory provisions, with the ``Federal Policy for the Protection of Human Subjects'' (revised Common Rule) and is being issued in accordance with a provision of the 21st Century Cures Act (Cures Act).
Protection of Human Subjects and Institutional Review Boards
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is proposing to amend its regulations to modernize, simplify, and enhance the current system for oversight of FDA-regulated human subject research. This proposed rule, if finalized, would harmonize certain sections of FDA's regulations on human subject protection and institutional review boards (IRBs), to the extent practicable and consistent with other statutory provisions, with the revised Federal Policy for the Protection of Human Subjects (the revised Common Rule), in accordance with the 21st Century Cures Act (Cures Act). We believe the proposed changes, if finalized, will reduce regulatory burden on IRBs, sponsors, and investigators. In addition, we propose related changes to the investigational device exemption (IDE) regulations to clarify and update the requirements for the submission of progress reports.

Commercial Driver's License: United Parcel Service, Inc. (UPS); Application for Exemptions
FMCSA announces its decision to grant United Parcel Service, Inc.'s (UPS) application for an exemption from certain provisions of the Agency's commercial driver's license (CDL) regulations.
