Excerpt
As part of a continuing effort to enhance the quality and credibility of scientific information that is disseminated to the public, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) released today a revised draft of guidance to agencies and requested additional public comment on the appropriate use of peer review. Peer review is a highly-regarded quality-assurance measure in the scientific community that promotes independent review and critique by qualified experts. The Peer Review Bulletin establishes minimum standards for when peer review is required and how intensive the peer review should be for different information products. ?Because of the importance of peer review to sound science, and to ensure that all voices are heard, we are both revising our draft Bulletin and requesting additional comment on it,? said Dr. John D. Graham, Administrator of OMB?s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs.
