    CHAPTER I--OFFICE OF ASSISTANT SECRETARY FOR EQUAL OPPORTUNITY, 
               DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

               Subpart D--Complaint and Compliance Review
 
Sec. 135.72  Cooperation in achieving compliance.

    (a) The Assistant Secretary recognizes that the success of ensuring 
that section 3 residents and section 3 business concerns have the 
opportunity to apply for jobs and to bid for contracts generated by 
covered HUD financial assistance depends upon the cooperation and 
assistance of HUD recipients and their contractors and subcontractors. 
All recipients shall cooperate fully and promptly with the Assistant 
Secretary in section 3 compliance reviews, in investigations of 
allegations of noncompliance made under Sec. 135.76, and with the 
distribution and collection of data and information that the Assistant 
Secretary may require in connection with achieving the economic 
objectives of section 3.
    (b) The recipient shall refrain from entering into a contract with 
any contractor after notification to the recipient by HUD that the 
contractor has been found in violation of the regulations in this part. 
The provisions of 24 CFR part 24 apply to the employment, engagement of 
services, awarding of contracts or funding of any contractors or 
subcontractors during any period of debarment, suspension or otherwise 
ineligible status.
