Abstract

The IRS developed Form 1095-B, Health Coverage, to report this information about individuals who are covered by minimum essential coverage.

Abstract

As required by the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) at 27 U.S.C. 205(e) and (f), the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) has issued regulations regarding the labeling and advertising of wine, distilled spirits, and malt beverages, which are contained in 27 CFR parts 4, 5, and 7, respectively. The FAA Act provides that these regulations should, among other things, prohibit consumer deception and the use of misleading statements on labels and ensure that labels provide the consumer with adequate information as to the identity and quality of the product. Under those TTB regulations, bottlers and importers of alcohol beverages must provide certain mandatory information, conform to regulatory requirements regarding certain voluntary disclosures, and adhere to certain presentation standards for statements made on labels and in advertisements of alcohol beverages. Those regulations ensure that consumers are provided with adequate, legible, and non-deceptive or misleading information as to the identity and quality of such products. The information collection requirements related to the required alcohol label and advertising disclosures are approved under OMB No. 1513-0087. Under TTB's FAA Act authority, TTB is issuing two proposed rules affecting this information collection: Notice No. 237, Alcohol Facts Statements in the Labeling of Wines, Distilled Spirits, and Malt Beverages (RIN 1513–AC93), and Notice No. 238, Major Food Allergen Labeling for Wines, Distilled Spirits, and Malt Beverages (RIN 1513–AC94). In the first proposed rule, TTB is proposing to require disclosure of per-serving alcohol, calorie, and nutrient content information in an “Alcohol Facts” statement on all alcohol beverage labels subject to TTB’s regulatory authority under the FAA Act. In the second proposed rule, TTB is proposing to require a labeling disclosure of all major food allergens used in the production of alcohol beverages subject to TTB’s regulatory authority under the FAA Act. Under the proposed regulations, unless an exception applies, labels must declare milk, eggs, fish, Crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, wheat, peanuts, soybeans, and sesame, as well as ingredients that contain protein derived from these foods, if used in the production of the alcohol beverage. In each proposed rule TTB is proposing a compliance date of 5 years after the date of a related final rule’s publication in the Federal Register.

Abstract

The CFTC requests approval of the proposed revision of this ICR to add a new information collection instrument (Swap Data Error Correction Form) that implements the requirements of 17 CFR 43.3 (Method and timing for real-time public reporting). The Swap Data Error Correction Form specifies the format and manner in which respondents should submit the reports required under 17 CFR 43.3. Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) added to the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) new section 2(a)(13), which establishes standards and requirements related to real-time reporting and the public availability of swap transaction and pricing data. Section 2(a)(13) and part 43 of the Commission’s Regulations require reporting parties to publish real-time swap transactions and pricing data to the general public. Without the frequency of reporting set forth in part 43, the Commission would not be able to adequately assess the swap markets and, more importantly, would fail to achieve the frequency of reporting and promotion of increased price discovery in the swaps market which are mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act. The Commission’s regulations in part 43 require SEFs, DCMs, and reporting counterparties to report swap transaction and pricing data to SDRs and require SDRs to disseminate the swap transaction and pricing data to the public. The SDRs do not provide this data to the Commission directly. The Commission may, however, use the swap transaction and pricing data in connection with fulfilling any of its regulatory duties or for other purposes. This publicly-reported data is also available to all other regulators and to the public and they may use it for any purpose as they see fit. The swap transaction and pricing data is made public in order to increase the transparency of the swaps market for regulators and market participants.
