The Subcommittee on Administrative Law and Governmental Relations is this morning holding a hearing on H.R. 811, the Independent Counsel Reauthorization Act of 1993. The law providing for the appointment of Independent Counsel was first enacted as part of the Ethics in Government Act of 1978. In both 1982 and 1987 the Congress passed bills which were signed by President Reagan extending the Independent Counsel Law for 5 years. President Clinton, unlike his predecessor, President Bush, supports efforts to extend the act and the act expired on December 15, 1992, just 2¿ months ago. The bill pending before the committee today would extend the Independent Counsel law for another 5 years. It restores the key provisions of the 1978 act which require the Attorney General to seek the appointment of Independent Counsel to investigate credible and specific allegations of serious wrongdoing by high executive branch officials and to prosecute them where appropriate. The bill also preserves the Attorney General´s discretionary authority to seek Independent Counsel to investigate allegations of wrongdoing by others in cases that involve a personal, financial, or political conflict of interest for officials of the Justice Department. While the law has generally worked well, the authors of the bill recognize the need to gain better control over spending by Independent Counsel.
