Independent Regulatory Review Commission - Regulatory Review Process in PA

Regulatory Review Process in PA

While many states engage some level of regulatory review, Pennsylvania is the only state that maintains an independent regulatory agency. The Regulatory Review Act, initially enacted in 1982, established the regulatory review process and created IRRC. The reenactment of the Act in 1989 established the current two-step oversight process. IRRC and the designated standing committees of the General Assembly now review regulations first as proposed and then again in final form.

Famous quotes containing the words review and/or process:

    As I review my life, I feel I must have missed the point, either then or now.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Any balance we achieve between adult and parental identities, between children’s and our own needs, works only for a time—because, as one father says, “It’s a new ball game just about every week.” So we are always in the process of learning to be parents.
    Joan Sheingold Ditzion, Dennie, and Palmer Wolf. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 2 (1978)
