The Federal Housing Finance Agency is soliciting comments from the public on how its regulations may be “more effective and less burdensome.” The FHFA’s call for comments in a April 19 publication of the Federal Register is in keeping with a 2011 executive order that calls for each independent regulatory agency, including the FHFA, to analyze its existing regulations and “modify, streamline, expand or repeal them,” as well as to make public a plan to periodically review its “existing significant regulations” to make the agency’s regulatory program “more effective or less burdensome” in achieving regulatory objectives.
