SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title of Collection: Auto Finance Data 

Project. 

OMB Control Number: 3170–00XX. 

Type of Review: New information 

collection. 

Affected Public: Auto finance 

companies. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

4,000. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 1,375. 

Abstract: The Dodd-Frank Wall Street 

Reform and Consumer Protection Act 

charges the CFPB with monitoring for 

risks to consumers in the offering or 

provision of consumer financial 

products or services, including 

developments in markets for such 

products or services. The CFPB has 

previously researched and documented 

significant gaps in available auto 

finance data which culminated in the 

initial Auto Finance Data Pilot project 

launched in February 2023. The data 

collected as part of the Auto Finance 

Data Pilot project both confirmed the 

benefit of additional data collection to 

fully carry out the CFPB’s mission, to 

fulfill the CFPB’s mandate to monitor 

the auto finance market for risks to 

consumers, and to inform the way the 

CFPB would propose to collect data in 

the future. The CFPB proposes to collect 

data in two separate processes. 

The CFPB proposes to collect a set of 

data annually from lenders that 

originate greater than 20,000 auto loans 

in the previous calendar year. This data 

collection would mirror that which was 

collected in the Auto Finance Data Pilot. 

The CFPB also proposes to collect a set 

of data annually from lenders that 

originate greater than 500 loans and 

fewer than 20,000 loans in the previous 

calendar year. This data collection 

would annually collect information on 

the number of vehicles repossessed and 

the number of loan modifications. 

Request for Comments: Comments are 

invited on: (a) Whether the collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

CFPB, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(b) The accuracy of the CFPB’s estimate 

of the burden of the collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methods and the assumptions used; 

(c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, 

and clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) Ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology. Comments submitted in 

response to this notice will be 

summarized and/or included in the 

request for OMB’s approval. All 

comments will become a matter of 

public record.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

meeting is being held under the 

provisions of chapter 10 of title 5, 

United States Code (U.S.C.) (commonly 

known as the ‘‘Federal Advisory 

Committee Act’’ or ‘‘FACA’’), 5 U.S.C. 

552b (commonly known as the 

‘‘Government in the Sunshine Act’’), 

and 41 Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) 102–3.140 and 102–3.150. 

Due to circumstances beyond the 

control of the DFO and the DoD, the DIB 

was unable to provide public 

notification required by 41 CFR 102– 

3.150(a) concerning its January 26, 2024 

meeting. Accordingly, the Advisory 

Committee Management Officer for the 

Department of Defense, pursuant to 41 

CFR 102–3.150(b), waives the 15- 

calendar day notification requirement. 

Purpose of Meeting: The mission of 

the DIB is to provide the Secretary of 

Defense, the Deputy Secretary of 

Defense, and the Under Secretary of 

Defense for Research and Engineering 

(USD(R&E)) independent advice and 

strategic insights on emerging and 

disruptive technologies and their impact 

on national security, adoption of 

commercial sector innovation best 

practices, and ways to leverage the U.S. 

innovation ecosystem to align 

structures, processes, and human capital 

practices to accelerate and scale 

innovation adoption, foster a culture of 

innovation and an experimentation 

mindset, and enable the DoD to build 

enduring advantages. The DIB focuses 

on innovation-related issues and topics 

raised by the Secretary of Defense, the 

Deputy Secretary of Defense, or the 

USD(R&E). The objective of this DIB 

meeting is to obtain, review, and 

evaluate information related to the DIB’s 

mission and studies. 

Agenda: The DIB’s open portion of 

the meeting will take place on January 

26, 2024 from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. 

The DFO, Dr. Marina Theodotou, will 

open the meeting and introduce the DIB 

Chair, Michael Bloomberg for his 

welcome and opening remarks. The DIB 

will present its findings and 

recommendations for deliberation and 

vote on two current studies: ‘‘Lowering 

Barriers to Innovation’’ and ‘‘Building a 

DoD Data Economy’’. Subsequently, the 

DFO will read public comments into the 

meeting record, and then, the Chair will 

then preview new study topics followed 

by closing remarks. The DFO will then 

adjourn the open session. 

The DIB’s closed portion of the 

meeting will take place January 26, 

2024, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. During 

this time, the DIB will meet with senior 

Department leaders and other Subject 

Matter Experts from Industry and 

Academia to receive insights to receive 

related to leveraging capabilities to 

remain at the forefront of innovation, 

innovative technology adoption, and 

other strategic challenges that the DoD 

is currently facing related to innovation 

with allies and partners. 

Meeting Accessibility: In accordance 

with section 1009(d) of the FACA and 

41 CFR 102–3.155, the DoD has 

determined that part of the DIB meeting 

will be closed to the public on January 

26, 2024, 1:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. 

Specifically, the USD(R&E), as the DIB 

Sponsor, in consultation with the DoD 

Office of General Counsel, has 

determined in writing that this portion 

of the meeting will be closed to the 

public because the DIB will consider 

matters covered by 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1). 

The determination is based on the 

classified nature of discussions related 

to national security. Such classified 

material is so intertwined with the 

unclassified material that it cannot 

reasonably be segregated into separate 

discussions without defeating the 

effectiveness and meaning of the overall 

meeting. 

Pursuant to Federal statutes and 

regulations (the FACA and 41 CFR 102– 

3.140 and 102–3.150), the open portion 

of the meeting will be accessible to the 

public virtually on January 26, 2024, 

from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Members 

of the public wishing to attend the 

meeting virtually will be able to access 

a link published on the DIB website the 

morning of the meeting. 

Written Statements: Pursuant to 41 

CFR 102–3.105(j) and 102–3.140 and 

section 1009(a)(3) of the FACA, the 

public or interested organizations may 

submit written comments or statements 

to the DIB in response to the stated 

agenda of the meeting or regarding the 

DIB’s mission in general. Written 

comments or statements should be 

submitted to Dr. Marina Theodotou, the 

DFO, via email to osd.innovation@

mail.mil. Comments or statements must 

include the author’s name, title or 

affiliation, address, and daytime phone 

number. The DFO must receive written 

comments or statements being 

submitted in response to the agenda set 

forth in this notice by 12:00 p.m. on 

January 23, 2024, to be considered by 

the DIB. The DFO will review all timely 

submitted written comments or 

statements with the DIB Chair and 

ensure the comments are provided to all 

members before the meeting. Written 

comments or statements received after 

this date may not be provided to the DIB 

until its next scheduled meeting. Please 

note that all submitted comments and 

statements will be treated as public 

documents and will be made available 

for public inspection, including, but not 

limited to, being posted on the DIB’s 

website.
