Notice and request for comments.

# SUMMARY:

                        The Department of the Treasury, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, invites the general public and other Federal agencies to comment on a proposed information collection, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13 (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). The Office of Financial Education within the Department of the Treasury is soliciting comments on a proposed new collection of information concerning the                         *Workplace Financial Education Honor Roll Program (Honor Roll*) application. To keep America competitive in the future, it is important to continue to increase the levels of financial literacy in the U.S. The purpose of the                         *Honor Roll*                         is to recognize employers that provide successful financial education programs to their employees. The                         *Honor Roll*                         is intended to spur interest in financial education by highlighting successful initiatives that show the benefits of financial education through both private sector and public sector efforts. The                         *Honor Roll*                         is one of the initiatives that the newly created President's Advisory Council on Financial Literacy has recommended to the Department of the Treasury.
