The US Government does not have the authority according to the US Constitution to establish religion. The government is dependent upon civilian Religious Organizations for their Religious Ministry Professionals (RMP) to fill the requirement for military chaplains. This form is for Religious Organizations to certify that their Religious Ministry Professionals are fully qualified according to Department of Defense Instruction 1304.28 to represent their Religious Organization and that they will perform all duties in the pluralistic setting required for military chaplains.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
