Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request; Applicant Background Questionnaire

The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, the Department of Labor is soliciting comments concerning the proposed revision of the ``Applicant Background Questionnaire''. A copy of the proposed information collection request (ICR) can be obtained by contacting the office listed below in the addressee section of this notice.
