Confidentiality Change

This Information Collection Request (ICR) will revise the confidentiality pledge made by NCSES to all respondents on all data collection efforts. The change will incorporate provisions that became law as a part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2016. This was signed on December 17, 2015, and included the Federal Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2015 (H.R. 2029, Division N, Title II, Subtitle B, Sec. 223). This single request will serve as an overall approval for all NCSES data collection requests. This emergency request will be active for six months, during which time NCSES will submit another request that will give the public an opportunity to comment on the permanent change.
