                                         REPORT

                                         [To accompany S. 2992]
                    The  Committee  on  Small Business  and Entrepreneurship, to
                  which  was referred the bill (S. 2992), to amend the Small Business
                  Act  to strengthen the Office of Credit Risk Management of the
                  Small Business Administration, and for other purposes, having con-
                  sidered the same  reports favorably thereon with an amendment
                  and recommends  that the bill (as amended) do pass.
                                          i. introduction
                    The  Act (S. 2992) was introduced by the Committee's Chairman,
                    Senator David Vitter on May 25, 2016. Senator Vitter was joined
                  by  Senators Jeanne Shaheen,  Kelly Ayotte, Gary Peters, James
                  Risch, and Michael Enzi in introducing the bill.
                    The  Small Business Lending  Oversight Act amends  the Small
                  Business Act to codify the Small Business Administration (SBA)'s
                  Office of Credit Risk Management (OCRM)   and provide the office
                  with the authority to impose specified administrative penalties, in-
                  cluding monetary penalties, on any 7(a) lender that knowingly and
                  repeatedly violates the laws and regulations of the SBA's 7(a) loan
                  guaranty  program. The primary goal of this bill is to strengthen
                  the SBA's ability to conduct effective lending oversight and to pro-
                  vide Congress with information regarding the SBA's oversight ac-
                  tions.
                    During the markup  of the bill, an amendment by Senator Coons,
                  for himself and Senator Risch, was agreed to by roll call vote as
                      69-010
