Abstract

Consistent with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and its implementing regulations, this document provides notice DoD is submitting an Information Collection Request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information on incident and case management data on problematic sexual behavior between children and youth as required by the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019, Section 1089, Policy on Response to Juvenile on Juvenile Problematic Sexual Behavior Committed on Military Installations. This statute requires policy development, data collection, and Family Advocacy Program (FAP) involvement through a multi-disciplinary response to problematic sexual behavior in children and youth (PSB-CY) occurring on military installations. More specifically, the legislation requires the data collection to include a description of the incident, whether a multidisciplinary review by the FAP was completed, whether the incident also involved an investigation by law enforcement or other entity, and whether action was taken to support and assist children, youth, and families in response to the incident and a description of any action taken.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Consistent with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and its 
implementing regulations, this document provides notice DoD is 
submitting an Information Collection Request to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information on incident and case 
management data on problematic sexual behavior between children and 
youth as required by the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2019, Section 1089, Policy on Response to Juvenile 
on Juvenile Problematic Sexual Behavior Committed on Military 
Installations. This statute requires policy development, data 
collection, and Family Advocacy Program (FAP) involvement through a 
multi-disciplinary response to problematic sexual behavior in children 
and youth (PSB-CY) occurring on military installations. More 
specifically, the legislation requires the data collection to include a 
description of the incident, whether a multidisciplinary review by the 
FAP was completed, whether the incident also involved an investigation 
by law enforcement or other entity, and whether action was taken to 
support and assist children, youth, and families in response to the 
incident and a description of any action taken.

DATES: Comments must be received by November 1, 2021.

ADDRESSES: The Department has requested emergency processing from OMB 
for this information collection request by 5 days after publication of 
this notice. Interested parties can access the supporting materials and 
collection instrument as well as submit comments and recommendations to 
OMB at <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. Comments

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This information collection provides 
incident and case management data on incidents of problematic sexual 
behavior between children and youth as required by the John S. McCain 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Pub. L. 115-
232), Section 1089, Policy on Response to Juvenile on Juvenile 
Problematic Sexual Behavior Committed on Military Installations. This 
statute requires policy development, data collection, and Family 
Advocacy Program (FAP) involvement through a multi-disciplinary 
response to problematic sexual behavior in children and youth (PSB-CY) 
occurring on military installations. The purpose of the collection is 
to determine eligibility for FAP services and to initiate a case record 
that will inform and support the development and implementation of 
well-coordinated safety plans, evidence informed support and 
intervention services, and referrals to specialized care when needed 
that meet the complex needs of children, youth, and their families 
involved in incidents of PSB-CY. The PSB-CY Information System is in 
the final phase of beta testing in anticipation of production release 
early October 2021 as specified in the system development contract. The 
PSB-CY development contract ends 12 November. Approval of the emergency 
processing will allow deployment of the PSB-CY Information System as 
programmed and contribute to the Department's ability to respond and 
intervene with appropriate treatment and services to help military-
affiliated children, youth, and their families who have been involved 
in these incidents. Delay of the information collection presents 
significant risk for a smooth transition, namely the ability for the 
new managing contractor to take full advantage of current PSB-CY 
development contractor expertise and help desk support post go-live. 
Disrupting the transition carries a significant operational risk to 
support the operations and sustainment of the PSB-CY application, 
including the high volume of data. MC&FP planned for the PSB-CY 
development contractor to provide support as part of the transition 
plan. If information collection and system go-live is not expedited, 
this transition support will be unavailable.
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Problematic Sexual Behavior 
in Children and Youth Information System; OMB Control Number 0704-PSBC.

    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Request for Comments: Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the 
proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper 
performance of the functions of DoD, including whether the information 
collected has practical utility; (2) the accuracy of DoD's estimate of 
the burden (including hours and cost) 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 automated 
collection techniques or the use of other forms of information 
technology.
