Agency Information Collection

Activities: Proposed Collection;

Comment Request

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration,

HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: 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

continuation of national surveys of

prescription drug information provided

to patients.

DATES: Submit written comments on the

collection of information by February 9,

1998.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments

on the collection of information to the

Dockets Management Branch (HFA–

305), Food and Drug Administration,

12420 Parklawn Dr., rm. 1–23,

Rockville, MD 20857. All comments

should be identified with the docket

number found in brackets in the

heading of this document.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Karen L. Nelson, Office of Information

Resources Management (HFA–250),

Food and Drug Administration, 5600

Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857,

301–827–1482.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the

PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal

agencies must obtain approval from the

Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) for each collection of

information they conduct or sponsor.

‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined

in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR

1320.3(c) and includes agency requests

or requirements that members of the

public submit reports, keep records, or

provide information to a third party.

Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44

U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal

agencies to provide a 60-day notice in

the Federal Register concerning each

proposed collection of information,

including each proposed extension of an

existing collection of information,

before submitting the collection to OMB

for approval. To comply with this

requirement, FDA is publishing notice

of the proposed collection of

information listed below.

With respect to the following

collection of information, FDA invites

comments on: (1) Whether the proposed

collection of information is necessary

for the proper performance of FDA’s

functions, including whether the

information will have practical utility;

(2) the accuracy of FDA’s estimate of the

burden of the proposed collection of

information, including the validity of

the methodology and assumptions used;

(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility,

and clarity of the information to be

collected; and (4) ways to minimize the

burden of the collection of information

on respondents, including through the

use of automated collection techniques,

when appropriate, and other forms of

information technology.

Years 1998 and 2000 Continuation of

National Surveys of Prescription Drug

Information Provided to Patients—

(OMB Control Number 0910–0279—

Extension)

FDA implements the provisions of the

Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

(the act), designed to assure the

adequate labeling of prescription (Rx)

drugs. Under section 502(a) of the act

(21 U.S.C. 352(a)), a drug product is

misbranded if its labeling is false or

misleading in any particular, and under

section 201(n) of the act (21 U.S.C.

321(n)), a drug’s labeling is misleading

if its labeling or advertising fails to

reveal material facts. FDA also has the

authority to collect this information

under Title VI of Pub. L. 104–180

(Related Agencies and Food and Drug

Administration) section 601 (Effective

Medication Guides), which directs the

development of ‘‘a mechanism to assess

periodically * * * the frequency with

which the [oral and written

prescription] information is provided to

consumers.’’

To assure that Rx drugs are not

misbranded, FDA has historically

asserted that adequate labeling requires

certain information be provided to
