Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Child Care and Development Fund Annual Report (ACF-700).
    OMB No.: 0980-0241.
    Description: The Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) report 
requests annual tribal aggregate information on services provided 
through the CCDF, which is required by the Child Care and Development 
Fund Block Grant (CCDBG) Final Rule (45 CFR parts 98 and 99). Tribes 
are required to submit annual aggregate data appropriate to tribal 
programs on children and families receiving CCDF-funds or CCDBG funded 
child care services. Tribal Lead Agencies are also required to submit a 
supplemental narrative as part of the ACF-700 report. This narrative 
describes child care activities and actions in the Tribal Lead Agency's 
service area. The ACF-700 and supplemental narrative report will be 
included in the Secretary's report to Congress, as appropriate, and 
will be shared with all Tribal Lead Agencies to inform them of CCDF or 
CCDBG-funded activities in other tribal programs.
    Respondents: Tribal CCDF programs (263 in total).
