This collection is necessary to
satisfy the requirements in Section 549 of the FY 2022 National
Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which requires the Secretary of
Defense to conduct a study to identify initial entry points through
which military family members may seek information or support
relating to domestic abuse or child abuse and neglect.
The Department of
Defense is required to fulfill the briefing and study requirements
and brief the Senate and House Armed Services Committees on initial
access points no later than one year after the enactment of the FY
2022 NDAA. Given DoD’s pressing need to meet congressional
requirements and our contracted vendor’s delivery deadline (July 1,
2022), it is impractical for DoD to consult with interested
agencies and members of the public within the outlined timeframe as
required by 5 C.F.R.§1320.13(c).
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.
