PART 80_NONDISCRIMINATION UNDER PROGRAMS RECEIVING FEDERAL ASSISTANCE 

THROUGH THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES EFFECTUATION OF TITLE 

VI OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT OF 1964--Table of Contents

 

Sec.  80.12  Effect on other regulations; forms and instructions.



    (a) Effect on other regulations. All regulations, orders, or like 

directions heretofore issued by any officer of the Department which 

impose requirements designed to prohibit any discrimination against 

individuals on the ground of race, color, or national origin under any 

program to which this regulation applies, and which authorize the 

suspension or termination of or refusal to grant or to continue Federal 

financial assistance to any applicant for or recipient of assistance for 

failure to comply with such requirements, are hereby superseded to the 

extent that such discrimination is prohibited by this regulation, except 

that nothing in this regulation shall be deemed to relieve any person of 

any obligation assumed or imposed under any such superseded regulation, 

order, instruction, or like direction prior to the effective date of 

this regulation. Nothing in this regulation, however, shall be deemed to 

supersede any of the following (including future amendments thereof): 

(1) The ``Standards for a Merit System of Personnel Administration,'' 

issued jointly by the Secretaries of Defense, of Health and Human 

Services, and of Labor, 45 CFR Part 70; (2) Executive Order 11063 and 

regulations issued thereunder, or any other regulations or instructions, 

insofar as such Order, regulations, or instructions prohibit 

discrimination on the ground of race, color, or national origin in any 

program or situation to which this regulation is inapplicable, or 

prohibit discrimination on any other ground; or (3) requirements for 

Emergency School Assistance as published in 35 FR 13442 and codified as 

45 CFR Part 181.

    (b) Forms and instructions. The responsible Department official 

shall issue and promptly make available to interested persons forms and 

detailed instructions and procedures for effectuating this part.

    (c) Supervision and coordination. The responsible Department 

official may from time to time assign to officials of the Department, or 

to officials of other departments or agencies of the Government with the 

consent of such departments or agencies, responsibilities in connection 

with the effectuation of the purposes of Title VI of the Act and this 

regulation (other than responsibility for review as provided in Sec.  

80.10(e)), including the achievements of effective coordination and 

maximum uniformity within the Department and within the Executive Branch 

of the Government in the application of Title VI and this regulation to 

similar programs and in similar situations. Any action taken, 

determination made, or requirement imposed by an official of another 

Department or Agency acting pursuant to an assignment of responsibility 

under this subsection shall have the same effect as though such action 

had been taken by the responsible official of this Department.
