This book was released on with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OMB Watch's particular interests in federal capacity to protect the public through regulatory policy, free access to government information, and the public's right to know about the risks to which it is exposed have led us repeatedly to the Paperwork Reduction Act, the OMB Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs created by that act, and OIRA's implementation of paperwork and regulatory review. [...] It should be supplanted with a new mandate for the Information Age: as a requirement for OIRA to work with agencies on identifying ways to use information technology to reduce the burden of information collection without reducing the quantity, quality, or frequency of information for the public. [...] The 1995 reauthorization changed all that and included a new purpose: to "provide for the dissemination of public information on a timely basis, on equitable terms, and in a manner that promotes the utility of the information to the public and makes effective use of information technology." This theme is indicative of a significant change in thinking about the purposes and uses of government infor. [...] In the 1995 reauthorization Congress mandated the creation of the Government Information Locator Service (GILS) to assist agencies and the public in locating information and promoting information sharing and equitable access by the public. [...] Among these ideas: • "open peer review," or creating an end-run around the balance requirements of the Federal Advisory Committee Act by throwing peer review open to the Internet, and allowing the legions of industry-funded scientists to overwhelm scientific assessment of policy issues; • enshrining in law the executive order in which the White House arrogates to itself the power to interfere in a.

Download or read book Implementing the Paperwork Reduction Act written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reported on the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) progress in implementing the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980. The Paperwork Reduction Act established broad objectives for improving the management of all federal information resources. The act established the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB and charged the Director, OMB, with governmentwide responsibility for achieving these objectives. OMB projected that a 29-percent reduction in paperwork burdens will be achieved by October 1983, exceeding the act's 25-percent reduction goal. However, GAO stated that OMB has made limited progress toward achieving other objectives of the act. The act contains 13 tasks with statutory milestones; 5 of the 6 tasks with 1982 milestones have not been completed. GAO believes that the most crucial decision contributing to the shortfalls in completing many of the act's task was the assignment to OIRA of primary responsibility for the Administration's regulatory reform program. As a consequence of its extensive regulatory reform responsibilities, OIRA has not devoted full time to implementing the Paperwork Reduction Act.
Download or read book Administrative Burden written by Pamela Herd and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2019-01-09 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bureaucracy, confusing paperwork, and complex regulations—or what public policy scholars Pamela Herd and Donald Moynihan call administrative burdens—often introduce delay and frustration into our experiences with government agencies. Administrative burdens diminish the effectiveness of public programs and can even block individuals from fundamental rights like voting. In AdministrativeBurden, Herd and Moynihan document that the administrative burdens citizens regularly encounter in their interactions with the state are not simply unintended byproducts of governance, but the result of deliberate policy choices. Because burdens affect people’s perceptions of government and often perpetuate long-standing inequalities, understanding why administrative burdens exist and how they can be reduced is essential for maintaining a healthy public sector. Through in-depth case studies of federal programs and controversial legislation, the authors show that administrative burdens are the nuts-and-bolts of policy design. Regarding controversial issues such as voter enfranchisement or abortion rights, lawmakers often use administrative burdens to limit access to rights or services they oppose. For instance, legislators have implemented administrative burdens such as complicated registration requirements and strict voter-identification laws to suppress turnout of African American voters. Similarly, the right to an abortion is legally protected, but many states require women seeking abortions to comply with burdens such as mandatory waiting periods, ultrasounds, and scripted counseling. As Herd and Moynihan demonstrate, administrative burdens often disproportionately affect the disadvantaged who lack the resources to deal with the financial and psychological costs of navigating these obstacles. However, policymakers have sometimes reduced administrative burdens or shifted them away from citizens and onto the government. One example is Social Security, which early administrators of the program implemented in the 1930s with the goal of minimizing burdens for beneficiaries. As a result, the take-up rate is about 100 percent because the Social Security Administration keeps track of peoples’ earnings for them, automatically calculates benefits and eligibility, and simply requires an easy online enrollment or visiting one of 1,200 field offices. Making more programs and public services operate this efficiently, the authors argue, requires adoption of a nonpartisan, evidence-based metric for determining when and how to institute administrative burdens, with a bias toward reducing them. By ensuring that the public’s interaction with government is no more onerous than it need be, policymakers and administrators can reduce inequality, boost civic engagement, and build an efficient state that works for all citizens.
