Sec.  300.9  Consent.

    Consent means that--
    (a) The parent has been fully informed of all information relevant 
to the activity for which consent is sought, in his or her native 
language, or other mode of communication;
    (b) The parent understands and agrees in writing to the carrying out 
of the activity for which his or her consent is sought, and the consent 
describes that activity and lists the

records (if any) that will be released and to whom; and
    (c)(1) The parent understands that the granting of consent is 
voluntary on the part of the parent and may be revoked at anytime.
    (2) If a parent revokes consent, that revocation is not retroactive 
(i.e., it does not negate an action that has occurred after the consent 
was given and before the consent was revoked).
