Requires each agency to: (1) annually publish in the Federal Register the status of its proposed rules that were not published; and (2) maintain a file, for public inspection, which records dates that rules were submitted for executive review and dates such rules were returned.
Requires each agency to make available for public inspection and copying any draft or final regulatory program submitted for executive review. Limits the period for such review to 30 days after receipt of the proposed or final rule, and allows an extension of no more than 30 additional days.
