Title: NEEDS ASSESSMENT OF SERVICES TO DEAF-BLIND INDIVIDUALS
Type of Information Collection: New collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Withdrawn	Conclusion Date: 06/17/1982
	Date Received in OIRA: 03/24/1982
Terms of Clearance: This information collection request is withdrawn. The proposed assessment might be interpreted as an intent to expand the Federal role in service delivery to the deaf-blind -- a direction inconsistent with Administration policy. The focus of the project is on the collection of attitudinal information, without objective measures of service quality. Finally, the analysis plan for much of the data to be collected is not directly linked to practical utility. OMB will consider any resubmission of this proposed assessment if these issues are adequately addressed.
