Sec. 117.1  Purpose.

    The purpose of this part is to effectuate the provisions of The Age 
Discrimination Act of 1975, as amended (hereinafter referred to as the 
Act), to the end that no person in the United States shall, on the basis 
of age, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or 
be subjected to discrimination under programs receiving financial 
assistance or any financial activities of the Small Business 
Administration to which this Act applies. The Act also permits 
recipients of Federal funds to continue to use certain age distinctions 
and other factors other than age which meet the requirements of the Act 
and these regulations in the conduct of programs and the provision of 
services to the public.
