have a vocational rehabilitation focus;

    (2) The services provided by the cooperating agency are only 

available to applicants for, or recipients of, services from the

program.

    (b) If a third party cooperative agreement does not comply with the

waiver of statewideness, in accordance with Sec.  361.26.
