In accordance
with Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 and 5 CFR 1320, we approve
this information collection through December 1990. The survey data
collection from the sample of mature men (or their widows) is
approved. Bases on the survey data the Bureau of the Census will
prepare a public use data tape using their normal
disclosure-avoidance procedures and provide it to the Ohio State
University Center for Human Resources Research. The waiver
requested was not approved (see Memorandum from Mac Reed to Hermann
Habermann, June 20, 1990). Any administrative records that the
Bureau of the Census collects from the Social Security
Administration and the Health Care Financing Administration would
be kept in the Bureau of the Census and used for further analyses
of the longitudinal data.
