Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Tribal Reporting 
Requirements--ACF-700.
    OMB No.: 0970-0430.
    Description: The Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Tribal 
Annual Report (ACF-700) requests annual Tribal aggregate information on 
services provided through the CCDF, which is required by CCDF 
regulations (45 CFR parts 98 and 99). Tribal Lead Agencies (TLAs) are 
required to submit annual aggregate data appropriate to Tribal programs 
on children and families receiving CCDF-funded child care services. The 
revised ACF-700 report consists of two parts: (1) Administrative Data, 
and (2) Tribal Narrative. The content and format of the narrative 
section have been revised to make the form easier to complete with new 
check box formatting. These revisions will allow the Office of Child 
Care (OCC) to more easily generate and quantify data in the report. 
These changes will help us better understand Tribal activities as they 
relate to compliance, quality of child care, use of funds, and 
technical assistance needs. Information from the ACF-700 will be 
included in the Secretary's Report to Congress, as appropriate, and 
will be shared with all TLAs to inform them of CCDF-funded activities 
in other Tribal programs. CCDF-funded Tribes that receive their funds 
under Public Law 102-477 are not required to submit the ACF-700.
    Respondents: Tribal Governments.
