This collection of information is
necessary to enable the Agency to garner customer and stakeholder
feedback in an efficient, timely manner, in accordance with our
commitment to improving service delivery. The information collected
from our customers and stakeholders will help ensure that users
have an effective, efficient, and satisfying experience with the
Agency's programs. This feedback will provide insights into
customer or stakeholder perceptions, experiences and expectations;
provide an early warning of issues with service; or focus attention
on areas where communication, training or changes in operations
might improve delivery of products or services. These collections
will allow for ongoing, collaborative and actionable communications
between the Agency and its customers and stakeholders. It will also
allow feedback to contribute directly to the improvement of program
management.
The request to increase the
total number of responses and total burden hours is due to the

agency will identify strengths and weaknesses of current services
and make improvements in service delivery based on feedback.
