[[Page 66824]]

Protege 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-protege 
agreements, receiving the program's benefits in consideration.
    This information is necessary to ensure that participants are 
fulfilling their obligations under the mentor-protege agreements and 
furthering the purpose of the Mentor-Protege 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.
    DoD Clearance Officer: Ms. Angela Duncan. Requests for copies of 
the information collection proposal should be sent to Ms. Duncan at
