OVERSIGHT PLAN FOR THE 112TH CONGRESS Clause 2(d) of rule X of the Rules of the House of Representatives for the 112th Congress requires that each standing committee in the first session of a Congress adopt an oversight plan for that Congress and submit the plan to the Committee on Government Reform and the Committee on House Administration. Clause 1(d)(1) of Rule XI requires each committee to submit to the House, not later than the 30th day after June 1 and December 1, a semiannual report on the activities of that committee under Rule X, including specific matters related to the implementation of the oversight plan. Because the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence is a select committee, and not a standing committee, Clause 2(d) of Rule X does not apply to the committee and an oversight plan was thus not required. The Committee notes that this exclusion from providing a public oversight plan is further justified and necessitated by the classified and sensitive nature of the oversight activities performed by the Committee. Clause 2(d)(2)(D) of Rule XI also requires that each committee provide a delineation of any hearings held pursuant to clauses 2(n), (o), or (p) of Rule XI. Those clauses require the committee, or a subcommittee thereof, to hold at least one hearing on egregious instances of agency waste, fraud, and abuse, at least one hearing on agency financial statements, and one hearing on examples of waste, fraud, and abuse raised by the Comptroller General of the United States. As part of the Committee's oversight and authorization of the intelligence community budget, the Committee conducts numerous classified hearings and briefings that focus on issues of potential waste, fraud, and abuse in federal agencies. These Committee efforts resulted in the Intelligence Community Authorization Act of 2011, which was signed into law on June 8, 2011, and the Intelligence Community Authorization Act of 2012, which was marked up in Committee on May 26, 2011. Each of these bills contained a detailed classified annex on all intelligence community programs and budgets. A review of potential waste, fraud, and abuse within these programs is an inextricable part of the development of the classified annex.
