Download or read book Changes to the OMB Regulatory Review Process by Executive Order 13422 written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Executive Order (E.O.) 12866 on "Regulatory Planning and Review," issued in September 1993, describes the principles and procedures by which the Office of Management and Budget's Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) reviews hundreds of significant proposed and final agency regulations on behalf of the President before they are published in the Federal Register. On January 18, 2007, President George W. Bush issued E.O. 13422, making the most significant amendments to E.O. 12866 since it was published. The changes made by this new executive order are controversial, characterized by some as a "power grab" by the White House that undermines public protections and lessens congressional authority, and by others as "a paragon of common sense and good government." The most important changes made to E.O. 12866 by E.O. 13422 fall into five general categories: (1) a requirement that agencies identify in writing the specific market failure or problem that warrants a new regulation, (2) a requirement that each agency head designate a presidential appointee within the agency as a "regulatory policy officer" who can control upcoming rulemaking activity in that agency, (3) a requirement that agencies provide their best estimates of the cumulative regulatory costs and benefits of rules they expect to publish in the coming year, (4) an expansion of OIRA review to include significant guidance documents, and (5) a provision permitting agencies to consider whether to use more formal rulemaking procedures in certain cases. This report discusses each of these changes, noting areas that are unclear and the potential implications of the changes, and provides background information on presidential review of rules. It concludes by noting that the significance of the changes made to the review process by E.O. 13422 may become clear only through their implementation, and notes some areas of potential congressional interest. The changes made by this executive order represent a clear expansion of presidential authority over rulemaking agencies. In that regard, E.O. 13422 can be viewed as part of a broader statement of presidential authority presented throughout the Bush Administration. The report will be updated as necessary to reflect legislative or executive branch actions relevant to the implementation of the executive order.

Download or read book Federal Rulemaking The Role of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 created the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Executive Order 12291, issued by President Reagan in 1981, gave OIRA the responsibility to review the substance of agencies' regulatory actions before publication in the Federal Register. Since then, OIRA has played a significant -- and sometimes determinative -- role in the federal rulemaking process. The office's regulatory review role was initially highly controversial, and it has been criticized at different times as being both too active and too passive regarding agencies' rules. Although OIRA has a number of specific statutory responsibilities (e.g., paperwork review and regulatory accounting), as a component of OMB it is part of the Executive Office of the President, and helps ensure that covered agencies' rules reflect the President's policies and priorities. A September 2003 report by the General Accounting Office indicated that OIRA had a significant effect on more than a third of the 85 rules in the study, but OIRA's most common effect was to suggest changes to explanatory language in the preambles to the rules. The current administrator of OIRA has made a number of changes since taking office in July 2001, including increased use of return letters, added emphasis on economic analysis to support the rules, and improvements in the transparency of the office's review process. Overall, in contrast to the 'counselor' role it played during the Clinton Administration, OIRA appears to have returned to the 'gatekeeper' role that it had during its first 12 years of existence. Possible legislative issues involving OIRA include codification of the office's review function and principles, increasing or decreasing the office's funding and staffing, adding review of rules from independent regulatory agencies, and improvements in the transparency of OIRA's review process.

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.
