5 C.F.R. § 950.302 Responsibilities of national federations.
Title 5 - Administrative Personnel
(a) National federations must ensure that only those member organizations that comply with all eligibility requirements included in these regulations are certified for participation in the CFC. (b) The Director may elect to review, accept or reject the certifications of the eligibility of the members of the national federations. If the Director requests information supporting a certification of national eligibility, that information shall be furnished promptly. Failure to furnish such information within 10 business days of the receipt of the request constitutes grounds for the denial of national eligibility of that member. (c) The Director may elect to decertify for up to one campaign year a federation which makes a false certification, subject to the requirement that any federation that the Director proposes to decertify shall be offered the opportunity to have a hearing on the record on the proposed decertification, followed by a written decision stating the grounds for the decertification. False certifications are presumed to be deliberate. This presumption may be overcome by evidence presented at the hearing. (d) The failure of a national federation to respond in a timely fashion to a request by the Director for required information or cooperation in an investigation or a settlement of disbursements may be grounds for decertification, provided that a decision to decertify is preceded by a hearing on the record and communicated in writing. (e) Each federation, as fiscal agent for its member organizations, must ensure that Federal employee designations are honored in that each member organization receives its proportionate share of receipts based on the results of each individual campaign.
