Abstract
In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, DoD announces the proposed extension of a public information collection requirement and seeks public comment on the provisions thereof. DoD invites comments on: whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of DoD, including whether the information will have practical utility; the accuracy of DoD's estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved this information collection for use under Control Number 0704-0332 through November 30, 2023. DoD proposes that OMB approve an extension of the information collection requirement, to expire three years after the approval date.

Needs and Uses: Section 831 of the National Defense Authorization
Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 1991 (Pub. L. 101-510, 10 U.S.C. 2302
Note, redesignated as 10 U.S.C. 4902) required DoD to establish the DoD
Pilot Mentor-Prot[eacute]g[eacute] Program (the ``Program''). Congress
requires DoD to collect certain information from program participants
in section 861, paragraph (b)(2), of Public Law 114-92. Thus, the need
for this information collection is to comply with existing laws. DoD
has incorporated these information collection requirements into the
DFARS in section I-112 of Appendix I. Program participants agree to
comply with these information collection requirements when they execute
their mentor-prot[eacute]g[eacute] agreements, receiving the program's
benefits in consideration.
This information is necessary to ensure that participants are
fulfilling their obligations under the mentor-prot[eacute]g[eacute]
agreements and furthering the purpose of the Mentor-
Prot[eacute]g[eacute] Program as required by section 18(d)(7) of the
Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 637(d)(7). In accordance with 10 U.S.C.
4902, DoD uses the information to decide whether to approve
continuation of the agreement. In addition, the information is
necessary for program managers to direct developmental assistance to
the most appropriate small business concerns and to ensure the program
meets the Congressionally-mandated goal of enhancing the defense
industrial base.
