With respect to the following 

collection of information, VBA invites 

comments on: 

(1) Whether the proposed collection 

of information is necessary for the 

proper performance of VBA’s functions, 

including whether the information will 

have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of 

VBA’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information; (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
