Approved for six
months only. This is the third clearance con- dition requiring
electronic submission without an adequate res- ponse from the
Office of Housing. Electronic signatures are hard ly in their
infancy--they are used widely and reliably. OH has displayed no
evidence that this means of substantial burden re- duction has ever
been considered seriously. The next submission shall contain a
workable plan for transition to electronic submission that OMB
shall consider binding. That pl an shall contain a schedule that
completes electronic submission with all deliberate speed. Future
ICRs shall be monitored for com pliance with that plan.
