The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) proposes revisions to the reporting requirements related to the Consumer Education Website (at Section 45 CFR 98.43 of the Final Rule) to help create transparency and efficiency around the State/Territory interstate background check processes. The revised reporting requirements would require State and Territory Lead Agencies to post information and resources pertaining to their interstate background check processes and procedures on their Consumer Education Website. OCC will use this information provided as a result of the revised reporting requirements to help ensure compliance with existing background check requirements in the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) Act and Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Final Rule.
The existing Reporting of Serious Injuries and Death reporting requirement (at Section 45 CFR 98.42 of the Final Rule) will not be modified.
These collections do not involve Federal forms.
