The House Small Business Subcommittee on Investigations, Oversight and Regulations is one of five
subcommittees of the
House Small Business Committee. The subcommittee was formed for the
107th Congress, when the Subcommittee on Government Programs and Oversight and the Subcommittee on Regulatory Reform and Paperwork Reduction were merged to create the Subcommittee on Regulatory Reform and Oversight. The first chair of that subcommittee was
Mike Pence. During the
110th and
111th Congresses, it was renamed the Subcommittee on Investigations and Oversight. Since the
113th Congress, it has been called the Subcommittee on Investigations, Oversight, and Regulations.
