22 C.F.R. § 96.105 Adverse action against a temporarily accredited agency by an accrediting entity.
Title 22 - Foreign Relations
(a) If the accrediting entity determines that an agency it has temporarily accredited is substantially out of compliance with the standards in §96.104, it may, in its discretion, withdraw the agency's temporary accreditation. (b) The accrediting entity must notify the agency in writing of any decision to withdraw the agency's temporary accreditation. The written notice must identify the deficiencies necessitating the withdrawal. Before withdrawing the agency's temporary accreditation, the accrediting entity may, in its discretion, advise a temporarily accredited agency in writing of any deficiencies in its performance that may warrant withdrawal and provide it with an opportunity to demonstrate that withdrawal would be unwarranted before withdrawal occurs. If the accrediting entity withdraws the agency's temporary accreditation without such prior notice, it must provide a similar opportunity to demonstrate that the withdrawal was unwarranted after the withdrawal occurs, and may reinstate the agency's temporary accreditation based on the information provided. (c) The provisions of §§96.25 and 96.26 govern requests for and use of information. (d) The accrediting entity must notify the Secretary, in accordance with procedures established in its agreement with the Secretary, when it withdraws or reinstates an agency's temporary accreditation. The accrediting entity must also notify the relevant State licensing authority as provided in the agreement.
