Comments on OIRA’s 2013 Annual Report

The Institute for Policy Integrity submitted comments in response to OIRA’s 2013 draft report to Congress. We suggest that OIRA can make further improvements to its final report by adding the following: recommend the balanced, transparent integration of employment impacts into cost-benefit analysis; recommend using retrospective review to pursue balanced, evidence-based, data-driven decisionmaking—not just cost-cutting; and recommend agencies coordinate by standardizing methodological practices, and should address claims of regulatory conflict or incoherence.
