                TITLE 13--BUSINESS CREDIT AND ASSISTANCE
 
                CHAPTER I--SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
 
PART 112_NONDISCRIMINATION IN FEDERALLY ASSISTED PROGRAMS OF SBA_EFFECTUATION 
 
Sec.  112.7  Illustrative applications.

    (a) Employment. The discrimination prohibited by Sec.  112.4 
includes but is not limited to any action (taken directly or through 
contractual or other arrangements) which subjects an individual to 
discrimination on the ground of race, color or national origin in any 
employment practice, including recruitment or recruitment advertising, 
employment, layoff or termination, upgrading, demotion, or transfer, 
rates of pay or other forms of compensation, and use of facilities.
    (b) Financial assistance. The discrimination prohibited by Sec.  
112.5 includes but is not limited to the failure or refusal, because of 
the race, color, or national origin of a person, to extend a loan or 
equity financing to him or to any business concern of which he is an 
owner or employee; or, in the case of financing which has actually been 
extended, the failure or refusal, because of the race, color, or 
national origin of the borrower or of an owner or employee of the 
borrower, to accord the borrower fair treatment and the customary 
courtesies regarding such matters as default, grace periods and the 
like.
    (c) Accommodations or services. The discrimination prohibited by 
Sec.  112.6 includes but is not limited to the failure or refusal, 
because of the race, color, or national origin of a person, to accept 
him on a nonsegregated basis as a patient, student, visitor, guest, 
member, customer, passenger or patron.
    (d) Affirmative action. (1) In some situations even though past 
discriminatory practices have been abandoned, the consequences of such 
practices continue to impede the full availability of equal opportunity. 
If the efforts required of the applicant or recipient under Sec.  
112.3(b)(3) to provide information as to the availability of equal 
opportunity, and the rights of individuals under this regulation, have 
failed to overcome these consequences, it will become necessary for such 
applicant or recipient to take additional steps to make equal 
opportunity fully available to racial and nationality groups previously 
subjected to discrimination.
    (2) Even though an applicant or recipient has never used 
discriminatory policies, the opportunities in the business it operates 
may not in fact be equally available to some racial or nationality 
groups. In such circumstances a recipient may properly give special 
consideration to race, color, or national origin to make opportunity 
more widely available to such groups.
