SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Interested persons are invited to send
comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this
collection of information, including any of the following subjects: (1)
The necessity and utility of the proposed information collection for
the proper performance of the agency's functions; (2) the accuracy of
the estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) the use of
automated collection techniques or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information collection burden.
Title of the Collection: Public Health Service Policies on Research
Misconduct (42 CFR part 93).
Type of Collection: Extension.
OMB No: OS-0937-0198.
Abstract: The Office of Research Integrity is requesting an
extension on a currently approved collection. The purpose of the
Institutional Assurance and Annual Report on Possible Research
Misconduct form PHS-6349 is to provide data on the amount of research
misconduct activity occurring in institutions conducting PHS-supported
research. The purpose of the Assurance of Compliance by Sub-Award
Recipients forms PHS-6315 is to establish an assurance of compliance
for a sub-awardee institution. Forms PHS 6349 and PHS-6315 are also
used to provide an annual assurance that the institution has
established and will follow administrative policies and procedures for
responding to allegations of research misconduct that comply with the
Public Health Service (PHS) Policies on Research Misconduct (42 CFR
part 93). Research misconduct is defined as receipt of an allegation of
research misconduct and/or the conduct of an inquiry and/or
investigation into such allegations. These data enable the ORI to
monitor institutional compliance with the PHS regulation.
There were minor revisions made on forms PHS-6349 and PHS-6315. The
revisions will not alter the data collection.
Need and Proposed Use: The information is needed to fulfill section
493 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 289b), which requires
assurances from institutions that apply for financial assistance under
the Public Health Service Act for any project or program that involves
the conduct of biomedical or behavioral research. In addition, the
information is also required to fulfill the assurance and annual
reporting requirements of 42 CFR part 93. ORI uses the information to
monitor institutional compliance with the regulation. Lastly, the
information may be used to respond to congressional requests for
information to prevent misuse of Federal funds and to protect the
public interest.
