Sec.  1206.1-9  Right to counsel; travel expenses.

    In all formal or informal proceedings under this subpart, the 
recipient and the Corporation shall have the right to be represented by 
counsel or other authorized representatives. If the recipient and any 
agency which has a right to participate in an informal meeting pursuant 
to Sec.  1206.1-4 or a termination hearing pursuant to Sec.  1206.1-7 do 
not have an attorney acting in that capacity as a regular member of the 
staff of the organization or a retainer arrangement with an attorney, 
the Boards of Directors of such recipient and agency will be authorized 
to designate an attorney to represent their organizations at any such 
show cause proceeding or termination hearing and to transfer sufficient 
funds from the Federal grant monies they have received for the project 
to pay the fees, travel, and per diem expenses of such attorney. The 
fees for such attorney shall be the reasonable and customary fees for an 
attorney practicing in the locality of the attorney. However, such fees 
shall not exceed $100 per day without the prior express written approval 
of the Corporation. Travel and per diem expenses may be paid to such 
attorney only in accordance with the policies set forth in the federal 
government travel regulations. The Boards of Directors of the recipient 
or any agency which has a right to participate in an informal meeting 
pursuant to Sec.  1206.1-4 or a termination hearing pursuant to Sec.  
1206.1-7 will also be authorized to designate two persons in addition to 
an attorney whose travel and per diem expenses to attend the meeting or 
hearing may be paid from Federal grant or contract monies. Such travel 
and per diem expenses shall conform to the policies set forth in the 
federal government travel regulations.
