The article presents an examination on the proposals to reform the independent regulatory agencies in the U.S. The discussion includes an attempt to identify the political inspiration of these proposed administrative reforms, the reform suggestions emanating from the executive branch of American government, the political origin and the purpose of the reform proposals, the inquiries on regulatory agencies by the Brownlow Committee of 1937 and the second Hoover Commission of 1955, and the recommendation by the Ash Council involving the abolition of the agencies into independent agencies.
