Information from this collection will
be used by FDA to implement an Inspection by Accredited Persons
program that will train and accredit persons that wish to conduct
inspections of eligible manufacturers of class II and class III
medical devices. This action is required by MDUFMA. This ICR
collects information from manufactures of class II or class III
medical devices who meet certain eligibility criteria and who
intend to use an "accredited person" to conduct an inspection of
their establishment. Under the Inspection by Accredited Persons
Program, eligible manufacturers may elect to have third parties
that have been accredited by FDA conduct some of their inspections
instead of FDA. This program allows manufacturers greater control
over the timing of their inspections and, in some cases, may reduce
the need for multiple inspections of the same
establishment.

FDA has requested consolidation
of OMB Control Nos. 0910-0510 and 0910-0569. The estimated hour
burden has increased by 150 hours as the result of adding the
approved burden from OMB Control No. 0910-0569 to this ICR. Because
these two information collections are related to the same program,
authorized under section 704(g) of the FD&C Act, we believe the
estimated burdens described above are most appropriately expressed
under one ICR. Additionally, this consolidation may increase
administrative efficiency by reducing FDA’s active ICR inventory.
Therefore, we request the addition of the information collection in
OMB Control No. 0910-0569 to OMB Control No. 0910-0510. Upon
approval of this consolidation, we would then terminate OMB Control
No. 0910-0569.
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.
