The Department of Education proposes
to amend the Student Assistance General Provisions regulations
issued under the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA), to
implement changes made to the Student Assistance General Provisions
regulations – Subpart D – Institutional and Financial Assistance
Information for §668.41 - Reporting and disclosure of information.
These proposed regulations are a result of negotiated rulemaking
and would delete requirements to the current regulations in
§668.41(h). The current regulations in §668.41(h) require
institutions that use pre-dispute arbitration agreements or class
action waivers as a condition of enrollment disclose that
information to students, prospective students, and the public in an
easily accessible format. The proposed regulations in §685.300
contain provisions which would replace those in current §668.41(h),
rendering it unnecessary. This request is to remove from the
current information collection the regulatory requirements, burden
hours, and costs associated with the regulations in §668.41(h)
while retaining the burden hours previously calculated for the
remaining sections of §668.41.
US Code:
20
USC 1092 Name of Law: Higher Education Act of 1998 amended
This request is to remove a
portion of the currently approved information collection. These
changes are due to the proposed regulations offered through program
change. The decrease in burden to this information collection is
-4,720 hours based on the removal of 5 hours of burden for an
estimated -944 institutions. These institutions no longer have to
update information about pre-dispute arbitration or class action
lawsuit waivers that may be in use by the institutions and to make
that information available to the public under §668.41(h).
