Government Transparency: Reporting on Revoked and Amended Federal Rules.
This law enhances the transparency of federal agencies by requiring them to report to the Comptroller General whenever a previously submitted rule is revoked, suspended, or amended. This ensures that the public and Congress have a complete and accurate record of which regulations are currently in effect, improving governmental accountability. While it does not change specific regulations, it modernizes the tracking of regulatory changes.
Key points
Federal agencies must report to the GAO when any existing rule is made ineffective, suspended, or replaced.
The goal is to maintain an accurate and up-to-date database of federal regulations, increasing public oversight.
These reporting requirements are temporary and will expire after 6 years.
