Although this
package is being approved, ED should be aware that the
justification in the clearance package (as well as in other RSA
clearance packages) is lacking. In general, these packages do not
adequately explain 1) the need for the survey, 2) the questions it
is intended to answer, 3) the analysis of the question, and 4) what
the rationale for the sample (universe) is. If this problem is
severe in future submissions, OMB may disapprove the request for
clearance.
