Federal Agency Relocation Cost Analysis: Increased Transparency and Oversight.

This bill aims to increase transparency and accountability in the process of relocating federal agency positions. It requires agencies to conduct detailed benefit-cost analyses before major relocations, which could impact job stability and local economies where federal offices are located.
Key points
Federal agencies must conduct a benefit-cost analysis before relocating more than 5% or 100 positions outside their current commuting area.
The results of these analyses must be made publicly available, increasing transparency of public spending.
Offices of Inspector General will review these analyses and report to Congress, providing additional oversight of relocation decisions.
