                 TITLE 24--HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

 

    CHAPTER I--OFFICE OF ASSISTANT SECRETARY FOR EQUAL OPPORTUNITY, 

               DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

 

PART 107_NONDISCRIMINATION AND EQUAL OPPORTUNITY IN HOUSING UNDER 

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11063--Table of Contents

 

Sec.  107.60  Sanctions and penalties.



    (a) Failure or refusal to comply with E.O. 11063 or the requirements 

of this part shall be proper basis for applying sanctions. Violations of 

title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 or a state or local fair 

housing law, with respect to activities covered by the Executive order, 

or of the regulations and requirements under E.O. 11063 of other Federal 

Departments and agencies may also result in the imposition of sanctions 

by this Department.

    (b) Such sanctions as are specified by E.O. 11063, the contract 

through which Federal assistance is provided, and such sanctions as are 

specified by the rules or regulations of the Department governing the 

program under which Federal assistance to the project is provided, shall 

be applied in accordance with the relevant regulations. Actions which 

may be taken include: cancellation or termination, in whole or in part 

of the contract or agreement; refusal to approve a lender or withdrawal 

of approval; a determination of ineligibility, suspension or debarment 

from any further assistance or contracts provided, however, that 

sanctions of debarment, suspension and ineligibility are subject to the 

Department's regulations under part 24 of this title; and provided 

further, that no sanction under section 302 (a), (b) and (c) of E.O. 

11063 shall be applied by the Assistant Secretary for FH&EO without the 

concurrence of the Secretary.

    (c) The Department shall use its good offices in order to promote 

the abandonment of discriminatory practices with regard to residential 

property and related facilities provided with assistance prior to the 

effective date of E.O. 11063 and take appropriate actions permitted by 

law including the institution of appropriate litigation to provide such 

equal housing opportunities.

    (d) In any case involving the failure of a lender to comply with the 

requirements of the Executive order or this part, the Assistant 

Secretary for FH&EO shall notify the Federal financial regulatory agency 

having jurisdiction over the lender of the findings in the case.
