22 C.F.R. § 96.103 Oversight by accrediting entities.
Title 22 - Foreign Relations
(a) The accrediting entity must oversee an agency that it has temporarily accredited by monitoring whether the agency is in substantial compliance with the standards contained in §96.104 and through the process of assessing the agency's application for full accreditation when it is filed. The accrediting entity must also investigate any complaints or other information that becomes available to it about an agency it has temporarily accredited. Complaints against a temporarily accredited agency must be handled in accordance with subpart J of this part. For purposes of subpart J of this part, the temporarily accredited agency will be treated as if it were a fully accredited agency, except that: (1) The relevant standards will be those contained in §96.104 rather than those contained in subpart F of this part; and (2) Enforcement action against the agency will be taken in accordance with §96.105 and §96.107 rather than in accordance with subpart K of this part. (b) The accrediting entity may determine, in its discretion, that it must conduct a site visit to investigate a complaint or other information or otherwise monitor the agency. (c) The accrediting entity may consider any information that becomes available to it about the compliance of the agency. The provisions of §§96.25 and 96.26 govern requests for and use of information.
