Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection; Comment Request: Consumer Surveys on Food and Dietary Supplement Labeling Issues

Короткий зміст

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing an opportunity for public comment on the proposed collection of certain information by the agency. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the PRA), Federal agencies are required to publish notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including each proposed extension of an existing collection of information, and to allow 60 days for public comment in response to the notice. This notice solicits comments on surveys to study consumers' understanding of specific label statements for conventional foods and dietary supplements and the impact of such labeling on consumer practices, knowledge levels, and attitudes. In the Federal Register of July 8, 2002 (67 FR 45128), FDA published a notice announcing OMB's approval of this collection of information (OMB control number 0910- 0492). Because this was an emergency approval that will expire on December 31, 2002, FDA in this notice is following the normal PRA clearance procedures by issuing this notice.
