AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which governs the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), the body that oversees auditors of public companies. It would make hearings in the Board's disciplinary proceedings open to the public by default. The Board could still close a hearing on its own motion or after considering a request from a party. The bill also removes language that delayed public notice of a sanction until any stay on that sanction had been lifted.
