Congressional Review Act: Implementation and Coordination

  Premium   Download PDF Now (15 pages)
Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date March 10, 1998
Report No. T-OGC-98-38
Subject
Summary:

The Congressional Review Act gives Congress an opportunity to review agency rules before they take effect and to disapprove of those that it considers too burdensome, excessive, or duplicative. Under the act, rules must be submitted to Congress and GAO before they can take effect. GAO's main role is to report to Congress on each major rule--those that can have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more, lead to major cost increases for businesses and consumers, or significantly affect the ability of U.S. companies to compete with foreign firms. This testimony discusses GAO's experience in fulfilling its responsibilities under the act, GAO's effort to coordinate the act's implementation with the Office of Management and Budget's Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, and how the act could be made more effective.
