FAR Council's Plan for Retrospective Review Under Executive Order 13563-Preliminary Plan
The Federal Acquisition Regulatory (FAR) Council has developed a preliminary plan for the retrospective analysis of provisions in the FAR, in accordance with Executive Order (E.O.) 13563, ``Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review.'' The E.O. sets forth principles and requirements designed to strengthen regulations and regulatory review by promoting public participation, improving integration and innovation, increasing flexibility, and increasing retrospective analysis of existing rules. The E.O. requires every agency to develop ``a preliminary plan, consistent with law and its resources and regulatory priorities, under which the agency will periodically review its existing significant regulations to determine whether such regulations should be modified, streamlined, expanded or repealed to make the agency's regulatory program more effective and or less burdensome in achieving its regulatory objectives.'' To comply with E.O. 13563, the FAR Council invites interested members of the public to submit comments on its preliminary plan available at https:// www.whitehouse.gov/21stcenturygov/actions/21st-century-regula tory- system.
Reducing Regulatory Burden; Retrospective Review Under Executive Order 13563 (E.O. 13563)
In March 2011, the GSA requested public input on how it can best implement the goals of Executive Order (E.O.) 13563, ``Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review.'' E.O. 13563 was signed by President Obama on January 18, 2011, and calls for an improvement in the creation and review of regulations and better opportunities for the public to be part of this process. Through comments received as well as internal input, GSA has created a retrospective review plan that is now available for comment. The plan is located at https://www.gsa.gov/open.
