Summary

The Secretary can monitor any person or group that gets money under this part to see if they follow the law and the rules the Secretary made. The Secretary can investigate anything needed for that. Investigations can include looking at and copying records, interviewing employees, and entering places where a program runs or records are kept. For investigations or hearings, section 49 of title 15 (about making witnesses attend and produce documents) applies to the Secretary the same way it applies to the Federal Trade Commission.
