Proposed Project
1. Monthly Vital Statistics Report--(0920-0213)--Extension--The
compilation of national vital statistics dates back to the beginning of
this century and has been conducted since 1960 by the Division of Vital
Statistics of the National Center for Health Statistics, CDC. The
collection of the data is authorized by 42 U.S.C. 242k. The Monthly
Vital Statistics Report provides estimates of monthly occurrences of
births, deaths, infant deaths, marriages, and divorces following the
end of each month. Similar data have been published since 1937, and are
the sole source of these data at the national level. The data are
widely used by the Department of Health and Human Services and by other
government, academic, and private research organizations in tracking
changes in trends of vital events. The data are essential to the U. S.
Bureau of the Census as input to their various population estimates.
They are also used each month by the Bureau of Economic Analysis,
Department of Commerce, to extrapolate an element of the Gross National
Product.
Respondents for the Monthly Vital Statistics Report and the Monthly
Report on Marriages, Divorces and Annulments are registration officials
in each state, the District of Columbia, and New York City. Respondents
for the Monthly Marriage and Divorce Statistical Report forms are 60
local (county) officials in New Mexico who record marriages occurring
and divorces and annulments granted in each county of New Mexico. There
are no direct costs to respondents; the data are routinely available in
each reporting office as a by-product of ongoing activities.
