Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs
The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) is located within the Office of Management and Budget and was created by Congress with the enactment of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (PRA). OIRA carries out several important functions, including reviewing Federal regulations, reducing paperwork burdens, and overseeing policies relating to privacy, information quality, and statistical programs.
Review Regulatory Dashboard

The Regulatory Review Dashboard at www.reginfo.gov, is a public website disclosing information about OIRA's review of draft regulations under Executive Order 12866 and Executive Order 13563. This dashboard graphically presents information about rules under OIRA review through an easy-to-use interactive display, and it allows the public to sort rules by agency, length of review, state of rulemaking, economic significance, and international impacts.
In addition, the ICR Dashboard displays agency information collection requests to OIRA for review under the Paperwork Reduction Act.
