Creative Open Government: U.S. House Committee Posts RESPA Hearing Video on YouTube.
The House Small Business Committee recently held a hearing on proposed HUD rules for the Real Estate Settlement and Procedures Act, AKA "RESPA".
In addition to the usual posting of written testimony from various government and housing industry officials, the Committee has posted a number of videos on YouTube of hearing testimony and question and answers HERE.
Staff took the time to break up a long video into a number of shorter videos to allow viewers to focus on speakers of interest. Kudos to the Committee and staff for their efforts in making the video of this hearing available to the public in a timely, easy to use fashion.
Below is one of the hearing videos featuring an official from the Center for Responsible Lending:
