OMB to Post Online Data On Proposed Regulations - The Office of Management and Budget announced that it would make more information available online regarding its role in analyzing and passing what amounts to final judgment on regulations and rules proposed by federal agencies. In a multiyear effort to expand the amount of data disclosed to the public online, OMB will post, among other things, lists of regulations under review, copies of letters sent between OMB and agencies, copies of correspondence with outside interests and information regarding meetings with outside groups. As minor as this sounds, it is a significant victory for openness. October 23, 2001
