Sec. 1203.6  Compliance information.



    (a) Cooperation and assistance. ACTION, to the fullest extent 

practicable, shall seek the cooperation of recipients in obtaining 

compliance with this part and shall provide assistance and guidance to 

recipients to help them comply voluntarily with this part.

    (b) Compliance reports. Each recipient shall keep records and submit 

to ACTION timely, complete, and accurate compliance reports at the 

times, and in the form and containing the information ACTION may 

determine necessary to enable it to ascertain whether the recipient has 

complied or is complying with this part. In the case in which a primary 

recipient extends Federal financial assistance to other recipients, the 

other recipients shall also submit compliance reports to the primary 

recipient as may be necessary to enable the primary recipient to carry 

out its obligations under this part. In general, recipients should have 

available for ACTION racial and ethnic data showing the extent to which 

members of minority groups are beneficiaries of federally assisted 

programs.

    (c) Access to sources of information. Each recipient shall permit 

access by ACTION during normal business hours to its books, records, 

accounts, and other sources of information, and its facilities as may be 

pertinent to ascertain compliance with this part. When information 

required of a recipient is in the exclusive possession of an other 

agency, institution, or person and this agency, institution, or person 

fails or refuses to furnish this information, the recipient shall so 

certify in its report and shall set forth what efforts it has made to 

obtain the information.

    (d) Information to beneficiaries and participants. Each recipient 

shall make available to participants, beneficiaries, and other 

interested persons the information regarding the provisions of this part 

and its applicability to the program for which the recipient received 

Federal financial assistance, and make this information available to 

them in the manner, as ACTION finds necessary, to apprise the persons of 

the protections against discrimination assured them by title VI and this 

part.
