    (a) Inspection and copying. We will maintain and provide for your 

inspection and copying current indexes of the records described in Sec.  

5.51(a). We will also publish and distribute copies of the indexes 

unless we announce in the Federal Register that it is unnecessary or 

impracticable to do so. For assistance in locating indexes maintained in 

the Department, you may contact the HHS Freedom of Information Officer 

at the address and telephone number in Sec.  5.31(c).

    (b) Record citation as precedent. We will not use or cite any record 

described in Sec.  5.51(a) as a precedent for an action against a person 

unless we have indexed the record and published it or made it available, 

or unless the person has timely notice of the record.
