                                 H.R.   3110
Financial  Stability Oversight  Council  Insurance   Member Continuity Act

  As ordered reported by the House Committee on Financial Services on July 25, 2017


Under current law, the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) is composed of ten
voting members; the heads of nine federal financial agencies and an independent member
with insurance expertise appointed by the President, with the advice and consent of the
Senate. The independent member serves a six year term. H.R. 3110 would allow the
independent member to continue to serve on the FSOC for up to 18 months after the end of
the member's term if a successor has not been appointed and confirmed.

Based on information from the FSOC, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 3110 would
cost less than $500,000. That amount would cover the additional personnel costs for the
independent member until a successor is appointed. Under current law, expenses of the
FSOC  are considered to be expenses of the Office of Financial Research (OFR), which is
direct spending. The OFR is authorized to levy assessments, which are recorded in the
budget as revenues, on certain financial institutions to offset its operating costs.
Accordingly, CBO estimates that the bill's net effect on the deficit would be negligible.

Because enacting H.R. 3110 would affect direct spending and revenues, pay-as-you-go
procedures apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 3110 would not significantly increase net direct
spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in
2028.

H.R. 3110 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 Stephen Rabent. The estimate was approved by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
