*Needs and Uses:*                     The information collection requirement is necessary to centralize case-level sexual assault data involving a member of the Armed Forces, in a manner consistent with statute and DoD regulations for Unrestricted and Restricted reporting, as well as to facilitate reports to Congress on claims of retaliation in connection with an Unrestricted Report of sexual assault made by or against a member of the Armed Force. Records may also be used as a management tool for statistical analysis, tracking, reporting, evaluating program effectiveness, conducting research, and case and business management. De-identified data may also be used to respond to mandated reporting requirements.                

*Affected Public:*                     Individuals or Households.

*Number of Respondents:*                     730.                

*Responses per Respondent:*                     1.

*Average Burden per Response:*                     2.44 hours.                

*Frequency:*                     On occasion.                

It is DoD policy to establish a culture free of sexual assault by providing an environment of prevention, education and training, response capability, victim support, reporting procedures, and accountability that enhances the safety and well-being of all persons covered by the regulation.
