Shouldn't be surprised
I was curious to see if Trump's alleged "add one, subtract two" rule for Federal regulations was having any effect.
Compared the Federal Register for this Monday versus the same week a year ago. (7/17/2017 vs 7/18/2016.) I didn't feel like reading the whole 150 pages of each, but a quick scan shows little difference in quantity and detail. No retractions or deletions in this Monday.

The new department will be tasked with developing regulations for reducing regulations, taking public comments on the regulations for reducing regulations, and analyzing public comments on the regulations for reducing regulations.
Parkinson to the Parkinson'th power.
