Policy and Procedures 326.77.01
The Department of Public Welfare adopts the following
emergency rules to become effective immediately upon
filing with the secretary of state. The rules contain the
department's policies and procedures for providing fi-
nancial assistance to students under Title XX of the
Social Security Act. Rule 326.77.01.023 describes a pro-
cedure which makes a school liable for fiscal penalties
imposed by the Department of Health, Education, and
Welfare (HEW) as a result of the department's inability
to hire or place 90 percent of the students receiving this
type of assistance.
Emergency adoption is necessary so that the schools
with whom the department has graduate and under-
graduate contracts may provide financial assistance to
eligible students for the fall term of the coming
academic year. Inability of the institutions to provide
this type of assistance would impose hardships on
minority students and would adversely affect many
other students who must rely on this type of aid. Re-
cent amendments to federal regulations create the need
for these rules.
These rules are promulgated under the authority of Ar-
ticle 695c, Texas Civil Statutes.Volume 1, Number 68. August 31. 1976
