*Public comments requested on the proposed reinstatement, without change, of a previously approved BJS data collection: 2022 Police Public Contact Survey (PPCS)* [ [link removed] ]

BJS encourages comments for 60 days through *February 7, 2022*, on the proposed reinstatement, without change, of a previously approved collection for which approval has expired: 2022 Police Public Contact Survey (PPCS). Your comments on BJS?s request to the Office of Management and Budget, which is published in the?"Federal Register", should address points such as?


* whether the proposed data collection is necessary, including whether the information will have practical utility
* the accuracy of the agency?s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of data, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions
* whether and how the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected can be enhanced
* the burden of the data collection on respondents, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques.

The PPCS [ [link removed] ] provides detailed information on the characteristics of persons who had some type of contact with police during the past year, including those who contacted the police to report a crime or other event, or were pulled over in a traffic stop. The PPCS interviews a nationally representative sample of residents age 16 or older as a supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS). The survey provides information with which to examine citizens' perceptions of police behavior and response during these encounters.
