Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 08/08/2000
	Date Received in OIRA: 05/19/2000
Terms of Clearance: This collection is approved for six months, during which the agency is instructed to report to OMB on why this collection is necessary. In particular, the agency must address why the duplication of information from the SBICs is necessary for the proper functioning of the program and why it is not sufficient to rely exclusively on the information provided by the SBICs themselves. The agency is also instructed to review this form and reestimate the burden of complying with this collection, including the burden necessary to gather and verify the information necessary to complete the form. If the agency finds that information from the SBICs is generally unreliable, the agency must justify continuing collecting information on the Form 468. If the agency finds that SBICs have a history of inaccurate or false records, the agency must demonstrate that it has taken all available measures, including legal remedies, to correct these failings before choosing to impose additional burden on small businesses.
