OIRA Directs Agencies To Put Forth Regulatory Cost Caps, Expects Cuts
From: Inside Health Policy
***
Bruce Levinson, senior vice president of regulatory intervention at the Center for Regulatory Effectiveness, told Inside
Health Policy the memo formalizes the process laid out in Trump’s executive orders which he said it does “in a
beautifully simple way.” Levinson added that the memo is “avoiding irony” by “not creating a paperwork intensive
process to kill paperwork.”
Levinson argued that the memo should not take anyone by surprise, and that agencies should have expected this, given
Trump’s EOs.
