Establishes a regulatory sandbox program allowing agencies to grant waivers of rules and guidance for businesses to test products or services.
The PIONEER Act establishes a regulatory sandbox program to allow businesses to test products or services under temporary waivers of certain rules and guidance. The Office of Federal Regulatory Relief oversees the program, which aims to foster innovation and economic growth. Businesses must apply for waivers, detailing their plans and risk mitigation strategies. Agencies review applications and can grant or deny waivers based on potential health, safety, and economic risks. Entities granted waivers must publicly disclose information to consumers and report incidents to the Office.
