Approved for 90
days with the following conditions. HUD has not demonstrated
compliance with the existing terms of clearance by indicating in
the instructions for the 93101-A form that the provision of the
statistical data required by questions 2-7 is optional. Therefore,
HUD is directed to revise this form to eliminate entirely the
imposition of these questions on the public, and must submit a
revised copy of this form (with questions 2-7 deleted) by December
17, 1988. We note that the information collected by questions 3-7
is duplicative of information collected on the 93101 form, and HUD
has not demonstrated a programmatic need for the information
collected by question 2. In addition, HUD must provide a more
intelligible response regarding why questions 12-16, which also
request duplicative information, should not be deleted from the
93101-A form.
