CBO Cost Estimate - H.R. 3262 1 (February 22, 2012)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo10658 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE February 22, 2012 H.R. 3262 Government Results and Transparency Act As ordered reported by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on November 3, 2011 SUMMARY H.R. 3262 would amend the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA), which requires all federal agencies to prepare performance and strategic plans. Under the legislation, agencies would be required to make performance and spending data for each program available at a searchable Web site. The legislation also would require the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board (Recovery Board) to establish consistent standards for information reported at that Web site. CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 3262 would cost $115 million over the 2013-2017 period, assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts, primarily for additional administrative activities and computer upgrades to standardize reporting requirements. The legislation would affect direct spending by agencies not funded through annual appropriations, such as the Bonneville Power Administration and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. However, CBO estimates that any change in spending by those agencies would not be significant. Enacting H.R. 3262 would not affect revenues. H.R. 3262 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments. ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT The estimated budgetary impact of H.R. 3262 over the 2013-20 17 period is shown in the following table. The costs of this legislation fall within function 800 (general government) and all budget functions that include agencies that file GPRA reports.
