Committee on Regulation

    The April 18, 2012 meeting of the Committee on Regulation, which 
was previously announced in the February 6, 2012 Federal Register (77 
FR 5755), has been cancelled, and two additional meetings have been 
scheduled for April 4 and May 3, 2012. The Science in the 
Administrative Process project, which was scheduled to be discussed at 
the April 18 meeting, will be postponed, with additional meetings 
likely to take place in the fall of 2012. At the upcoming meetings, the 
Committee on Regulation will consider a report and set of draft 
recommendations dealing with regulatory analysis requirements. The 
report, authored by Curtis W. Copeland, analyzes the various regulatory 
analysis requirements with which agencies must comply and offers a set 
of recommendations for streamlining those processes. Reeve T. Bull is 
the Designated Federal Officer for this committee. More information can 
be found in the ``Research'' section of the Conference's Web site, at 
http://www.acus.gov. Click on ``Research,'' then on ``Conference

Committee's April 23, 2012 meeting, which will occur as scheduled. At 
the meeting, the Committee on Adjudication will discuss further a draft 
report on the Immigration Adjudication Project and a draft 
recommendation based on the consultants' report. The report, prepared 
by Professor Lenni B. Benson (New York Law School) and Russell Wheeler 
(Brookings Institution), presents the findings of a study of potential 
improvements to the procedures for immigration adjudication. Funmi E. 
Olorunnipa is the Designated Federal Officer for this committee. More
