Title: FAIR HOUSING ASSISTANCE PROGRAM APPLICATION (FR-2403)
Type of Information Collection: Revision of a currently approved collection	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 11/08/1988
	Date Received in OIRA: 08/31/1988
Terms of Clearance: Approved for 1 year with the following condition. The Program Narrative Statement requirements, contained at 9.c.1-10 of the "Application Instructions and Conditions (Attachment A)," are not approved. We note that the Department proposes fundamental change to the funding system for FHAP in the NPRM. Funding for this program would be changed from a "competitive" to a "non-competitive" funding system, under which any jurisdiction meeting the eligibility criteria stated in section 111.107 of the NPRM would receive funding. Additionally, funding would be awarded according to the NPRM based on a jurisdication's population, funding contributions to local fair housing programs by the State or local government, and number of complaints processed. The information collection requirements at 9.c. 1-10 of "Attachment A" are not consistent with the information needs for determining eligibility or providing funding under the revised FHAP. Accordingly, pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.4(c) (which requires that information collection requirements not be approved unless they are necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the program), we are unable to approve the requirements at 9.c. 1-10.
