              OIRA Insight, Reform, and Accountability Act

                              on February 14, 2017


SUMMARY

H.R. 1009 would codify many executive orders and practices of the federal government
related to the process of issuing federal regulations. The legislation also would expand the
role of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) in the regulatory process
and authorize OIRA to review rules proposed by certain independent federal agencies.

CBO  estimates that implementing the bill would increase administrative costs to OIRA and
federal agencies by a total of $20 million over the 2018-2022 period; such spending would
be subject to the availability of appropriated funds. CBO estimates that enacting the bill
would increase direct spending by $3 million over the 2018-2027 period and would reduce
revenues by $2 million over the same period. Because the bill would affect revenues and
direct spending, pay-as-you-go procedures apply.

CBO  also expects that enacting H.R. 1009 could delay the issuance of some rules.
However, because of the large number and variety of federal rules issued each year, CBO
cannot determine whether a delay in the effective date of some rules would have a cost or
savings to the federal government.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 1009 would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits by more than $5 billion in one or more of the four consecutive 10-year
periods beginning in 2028.

H.R. 1009 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.
