25 U.S.C. § 4145d: Review and report

Summary

The Secretary must do a review during calendar year 2011 of the program to see what housing was built, bought, or fixed; how that housing affected costs for low-income families; how well each recipient met the goals in its Indian housing plan; and whether the program should be extended or get more grant money from section 4111. By December 31, 2011, the Secretary must give Congress a report with findings, conclusions, and recommendations about extending the program and increasing amounts under section 4145a(c). The report must also say which tribes or recipients should be barred for failing to meet results and for how long, or set the standards and procedures for banning them. Recipients must give the Secretary any information requested in enough detail and on time so the review and report can be completed.
