SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
[top] On May 11, 2020, SBA published a final rule titled, "Women-Owned Small Business and Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business Certification" (85 FR 27650). The final rule revised part 127 of SBA's regulations, "Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contract Program", to implement a statutory requirement to certify Women-Owned Small Business
At the time the final rule was published, the effective date of §?127.355 was delayed indefinitely because this regulation implicated the Paperwork Reduction Act. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act, SBA was required to obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget for an information collection titled, "Certification for the Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contract Program" (OMB Control No. 3245-0374). The Office of Management and Budget approved the information collection on May 3, 2021. Therefore, SBA hereby establishes an effective date of May 3, 2021, for 13 CFR 127.355.
Antonio Doss,
Deputy Associate Administrator, Government Contracting and Business Development.
