What is the Information Collection Budget (ICB)?
A. The Information Collection Budget (ICB) is the vehicle through which OMB, in consultation with each federal agency, sets “annual agency goals to reduce information collection burdens imposed on the public.” The ICB serves as a management oversight tool and as an adjunct to the transactional case-by-case review of agency requests for approval required by the PRA. HHS completes the ICB each year utilizing data collected from the OPDIVs.
