    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    OTS may not conduct or sponsor an information collection, and respondents are not required to respond to an information collection, unless the information collection displays a currently valid OMB control number. As part of the Start Printed Page 13514approval process, we invite comments on the following information collection.

    Comments should address one or more of the following points:

    a. Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of OTS;

    b. The accuracy of OTS's estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection;

    c. Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected;

    d. Ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on respondents, including through the use of information technology.

    We will summarize the comments that we receive and include them in the OTS request for OMB approval. All comments will become a matter of public record. In this notice, OTS is soliciting comments concerning the following information collection.

    Title of Proposal: Release of Non-Public Information.

    OMB Number: 1550-0081.

    Form Numbers: N/A.

    Regulation requirement: 12 CFR part 510.5.

    Description: OTS staff uses the information provided by the requesters to respond to their requests for unpublished information.

OTS staff also uses the information to help determine whether the requester's need for the unpublished information outweighs the agency's confidentiality concerns.

    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.

    Estimated Number of Respondents: 25.

    Estimated Number of Responses: 25.
