Notice of approval of information collection requirements. ACTION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), the U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE) is announcing Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval of new information collection requirements contained in a final rule published in the Federal Register on May 25, 2023, ‘‘Legal Expense Fund Regulation.’’ FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: McEvan Baum at the U.S. Office of Government Ethics; telephone: 202– 482–9287; TTY: 800–877–8339; Email: usoge@oge.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), an agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is not obligated to respond to a collection of information, unless the collection of information displays a currently valid OMB control number. On May 25, 2023, OGE published a final rule establishing a framework to govern an executive branch employee’s acceptance of payments for legal expenses through a Legal Expense Fund (LEF) for matters arising in connection with the employee’s official position, the employee’s prior position on a campaign of a candidate for President or Vice President, or the employee’s prior position on a Presidential Transition Team. The requirements for establishing and maintaining a LEF are found in 5 CFR part 2635, subpart J (LEF regulation). The LEF regulation requires that employees who wish to establish a legal expense fund do so through a trust with a single, named employee beneficiary and a trustee. It also requires an employee beneficiary to file quarterly reports that include information (1) regarding members of the public who make financial donations to help pay for lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:55 Aug 25, 2023 Jkt 259001 the employee beneficiary’s legal expenses (donors) and (2) members of the public who receive payments from a legal expense fund (payees). The employee beneficiary must also file a termination report upon the termination of the trust and/or executive branch employment. The trust documents, quarterly reports, and termination reports will be posted directly on OGE’s website in accordance with 5 CFR 2635.1007(g). Together, this information collection (IC) is titled ‘‘OGE Legal Expense Fund Information Collection.’’ OGE submitted a request for approval of this information collection on May 25, 2023, and OMB approved it on July 21, 2023. It was assigned OMB Control Number 3209–0012. Therefore, in accordance with the PRA, OGE hereby announces OMB approval of the information collection requirements as contained in the final rule, which will be effective November 21, 2023. 58581 Healthcare Research and Quality, ATTN: EPC SEADs Coordinator, 5600 Fishers Lane, Mail Stop 06E53A, Rockville, MD 20857.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: GSA amended the FTR by introducing premium 
economy airline accommodations as a class of service, creating 
management controls related to the use thereof, and changing the 
deadline for reporting the use of first class and business class 
transportation accommodations. This rule, titled ``Common Carrier 
Transportation,'' and published at 87 FR 55699, on September 12, 2022, 
did not change the requirement for agencies to report the use of all 
first class and business class transportation accommodations which 
exceed the coach class fare, nor did it change the requirement for 
agencies to report the use of extra-fare train service. However, since 
publishing 87 FR 55699, Common Carrier Transportation, GSA has received 
questions from agencies on how to determine the comparative cost of a 
coach class train fare when the use of an extra-fare train is 
authorized. In accordance with 41 CFR 300-70.101, FTR Bulletin 23-07 
clarifies the information agencies are required to report on the 
authorized use of first class and business class transportation 
accommodations and how to determine the comparative coach class 
accommodations. This bulletin also rescinds FTR Bulletin 20-05, 
published at 85 FR 17890, on March 31, 2020.
