                                  H.R.   1004
                      Regulatory   Integrity  Act of 2017

  As ordered reported by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
                               on February 14, 2017


H.R. 1004 would direct each federal agency to make information regarding their
regulatory actions publicly available in a searchable format on a prominent website. That
information would have to include the date a regulation was considered, its current status,
an estimate of when the regulation would be final, and a brief description of the
regulation. In addition, agencies would be required to track the details of all public
communications about pending regulatory actions. Because this information is already
collected by regulatory agencies, CBO estimates that the cost of making it available
online would not be significant.

The bill could affect direct spending by agencies not funded though annual
appropriations; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. CBO estimates, however, that
any net increase in spending by those agencies would be negligible. Enacting H.R. 1004
would not affect revenues.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 1004 would not increase net direct spending or on-
budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

H.R. 1004 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded  Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal
governments.

The CBO  staff contact for this estimate is Matthew Pickford. The estimate was approved
by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
