§ 5.52   Indexes of records.

(a) Inspection and copying. We will maintain and provide for your inspection and copying current indexes of the records described in §5.51(a). We will also publish and distribute copies of the indexes unless we announce in the Federal Register that it is unnecessary or impracticable to do so. For assistance in locating indexes maintained in the Department, you may contact the HHS Freedom of Information Officer at the address and telephone number in §5.31(c).

(b) Record citation as precedent. We will not use or cite any record described in §5.51(a) as a precedent for an action against a person unless we have indexed the record and published it or made it available, or unless the person has timely notice of the record.
