The board would be required to perform a comprehensive analysis of the nation's manufacturing sector and, using results from the analysis, develop a strategy to improve the competitiveness of domestic manufacturing efforts. Results from the analysis and strategy would be available to the President to comply with the bill's requirement to publish a strategy in 2014 and again in 2018 to promote growth in the nation's manufacturing sector. Based on information from the Department of Commerce, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 5865 would cost about $15 million over the 2013-2017 period, assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts. Enacting H.R. 5865 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. H.R. 5865 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal governments. ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT The estimated budgetary impact of H.R. 5865 is shown in the following table. The costs of this legislation fall within budget function 370 (commerce and housing credit).
