Any similar familial terminology references in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) statutes, regulations, or policy transmittals will be interpreted to include same-sex spouses and marriages legally entered into as described herein. [USC 7 – Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act]. 3.

In the event that the OoA and/or State determines that a conflict of interest exists, any increase in costs associated with the conflict of interest may be disallowed by the OoA and/or State and such conflict may constitute grounds for termination of the Contract. b. This provision shall not be construed to prohibit employment of persons with whom the Subrecipient’s officers, agents, or employees have family, business, or other ties, so long as the employment of such persons does not result in a conflict of interest (real or apparent) or increased costs over those associated with the employment of any other equally qualified applicant, and such persons have successfully competed for employment with the other applicants on a merit basis. 6. Facility Construction or Repair This section applies only to Title III funds and not to other funds allocated to other Titles under the Older Americans Act.
