    The purpose of this subpart is to insure that federal agencies which 
extend financial assistance properly enforce title VI of the Civil 
Rights Act of 1964 and similar provisions in federal grant statutes. 
Enforcement of the latter statutes is covered by this subpart to the 
extent that they relate to prohibiting discrimination on the ground of 
race, color or national origin in programs receiving federal financial 
assistance of the type subject to title VI. Responsibility for enforcing 
title VI rests with the federal agencies which extend financial 
assistance. In accord with the authority granted the Attorney General 
under Executive Order 12250, this subpart shall govern the respective 
obligations of federal agencies regarding enforcement of title VI. This 
subpart is to be used in conjunction with the 1965 Attorney General 
Guidelines for Enforcement of title VI, 28 CFR 50.3.
