The Office of Policy Development is comprised of the Domestic Policy 
Council and the National Economic Council, which are responsible for 
advising and assisting the President in the formulation, coordination, 
and implementation of domestic and economic policy. The Office of Policy 
Development also provides support for other policy development and 
implementation activities as directed by the President.

Domestic Policy Council

The Domestic Policy Council was established on August 16, 1993, by 
Executive Order 12859. The Council oversees development and 
implementation of the President's domestic policy agenda and ensures 
coordination and communication among the heads of relevant Federal 
offices and agencies.

National Economic Council

The National Economic Council was created on January 25, 1993, by 
Executive Order 12835, to coordinate the economic policymaking process 
and provide economic policy advice to the President. The Council also 
ensures that economic policy decisions and programs are consistent with 
the President's stated goals, and monitors the implementation of the 
President's economic goals.
