The publisher's summary

ACF proposes to remove regulations that implement title IV-B of the Social Security Act (the Act) because they are outdated and refer to dates that have passed, have been superseded by subsequent amendments to the Act, duplicate or restate requirements already in title IV-B of the Act or other Federal law, and/or impose administrative and reporting requirements on agencies that do not meaningfully support Federal program oversight and administration of title IV-B programs. Four of these regulatory requirements are redesignated to the regulations addressing titles IV-E and IV-B plan requirements. ACF also proposes to remove the regulation that articulates the principles of child and family services reviews because it does not prescribe any requirements that states and tribes must follow, but rather provides unenforceable recommendations, and to remove redundant cross-references.
