Proposed Project Division of Vital Statistics Proposal for Access to Restricted-Use Vital Statistics Data for the National Center for Health Statistics—Existing Collection in Use Without an OMB Control Number—National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description This is a request for OMB Clearance for the Division of Vital Statistics
(DVS)Proposal for Access to Restricted-Use Vital Statistics Data for the National Center for Health Statistics. A three-year clearance is requested. The DVS Proposal has been in use since 1998. Recently, as part of the Evidence Act work to develop and implement a federal government-wide Standard Application Process (see 44 U.S.C. 3583) and through OMB consultation, the NCHS DVS became aware that the DVS proposal was, in fact, an information collection initiative. The NCHS DVS recognizes this and is therefore submitting this OMB clearance package to correct this oversight and obtain OMB approval. This proposed information collection of information is designed to help facilitate review of the agency's research and will allow the National Center for Health Statistics
(NCHS)to determine whether a research study requires access to confidential data. NCHS anticipates it will receive approximately 600 proposals annually. CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 600 annual burden hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their time to participate.
