Short Statement:
This is an existing collection in use without an OMB control number. Current NIGMS program staff for the IDeA program was operating under the assumption that an OMB number was in place for the collection of supplemental information which started when the program was previously at the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR). Once the infraction was recognized, NIGMS staff has worked closely with the NIH PRA office to ensure that the collection of information conform to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA).
