(a) The Committee may conduct a focused review of an entity if the Committee determines that a full review of the entity is not appropriate or necessary. The purpose of a focused review is to evaluate a component within an entity, such as a specific statute, policy, rule, regulation, or program related to the entity. A focused review is in contrast to the broader evaluation of a full review under this chapter.
(b) A focused review is conducted as follows:
(1) The Committee may select an entity or component of an entity, such as a program or sub-entity, for a focused review in the same manner that it selects an entity for a full review under § 10213(c) of this title.
(2) The Committee may begin a focused review immediately and is not subject to the timeline under § 10210(a) of this title.
(3) Committee staff shall work with the Committee to establish the scope of the focused review.
(4) Committee staff shall conduct research based on the scope established under paragraph (b)(3) of this section and any other issue, concern, defect, or problem that the Committee may request or as the research may indicate.
(5) The Committee shall set a deadline for completion of the committee staff's research, based on staff's estimation of the time needed to complete the research and the emergency nature, if any, of the focused review.
(6) In conducting research under this section, committee staff shall engage the general public and each appropriate entity or organization, including the entity under focused review, to request written testimony, comment, or other material to aid the Committee in the focused review.
(7) Committee staff shall prepare a staff report containing a summary of the staff's research and staff's findings, conclusions, and recommendations. Committee staff shall submit the report to the Committee not later than the deadline that the Committee sets under paragraph (b)(5) of this section, unless staff requests and the chair approves an extension of time.
(8) After committee staff has submitted the staff report under this section to the Committee, the Committee shall conduct the focused review by following § 10209(d) of this title.
(9) Committee staff shall make the staff report available to the public not later than the date of the Committee's initial public hearing under paragraph (b)(8) of this section.
(10) To conclude a focused review, the Committee shall publish each recommended change that the Committee may determine is necessary or appropriate.
