The information collection requires
individuals who are requesting non-public OCC information to
provide the OCC with information regarding the requestor's legal
grounds for the request. The OCC uses the information to process
requests for non-public OCC information and to determine if
sufficient grounds exist for the OCC to release the requested
information or to provide testimony.

The increase in burden is due
to the integration of the OTS with the OCC. The additional
respondents are entities formerly regulated by the OTS. The OCC
uses the information to process requests for non-public OCC
information and to determine if sufficient grounds exist for the
OCC to release the requested information or provide testimony. This
information collection makes more efficient the mechanism for
processing requests, and facilitates and expedites the OCC's
release of non-public information and testimony to the
requester.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
