Sec.  91.2  What is the purpose of HHS' age discrimination regulations?



    The purpose of these regulations is to set out HHS' policies and 

procedures under the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 and the general age 

discrimination regulations at 45 CFR part 90.\1\ The Act and the general 

regulations prohibit discrimination on the basis of age in programs or

factors other than age which meet the requirements of the Act and its 

implementing regulations.
