Ky. Rev. Stat. § 344.560

Current through 2024 Ky. Acts ch. 225

Section 344.560 - Agencies and departments required to effectuate KRS 344.555

Each state department and agency which is empowered to extend state financial assistance to any education program or activity, by way of grant, loan, or contract other than a contract of insurance or guaranty, shall effectuate the provisions of KRS 344.555 with respect to such program or activity by promulgating administrative regulations of general applicability which shall be consistent with achievement of the objectives of the statute authorizing the financial assistance in connection with which the action is taken. This section shall not apply to a state department or agency which extends state financial assistance to an education institution if the amount of state financial assistance extended by the state department or agency represents less than two percent (2%) of the total state financial assistance received by the education institution. Compliance with any requirement adopted pursuant to this section shall be effected:

(1) By the termination of or refusal to grant or to continue assistance under such program or activity to any recipient as to whom there has been an express finding on the record, after opportunity for hearing, of a failure to comply with such requirement, but such termination or refusal shall be limited to the particular political entity, or part thereof, or other recipient as to whom such a finding has been made, and shall be limited in its effect to the particular program, or part thereof, in which the noncompliance has been found; or

(2) By any other means authorized by law.

However, no action shall be taken until the department or agency concerned has advised the appropriate person or persons of the failure to comply with the requirement and has determined that compliance cannot be secured by voluntary means. In the case of any action terminating, or refusing to grant or continue, assistance because of failure to comply with a requirement imposed pursuant to this section, the chief officer of the state department or agency shall file with the committees of the House of Representatives and Senate having legislative jurisdiction over the program or activity involved a full written report of the circumstances and the grounds for such action. No such action shall become effective until thirty (30) days have elapsed after the filing of such report.
