Assess whether a grant special condition is being waived de facto (5cfc10)

Situation

Budget and Performance work in a cabinet agency defending a budget increase now turns on a grant special condition because a subrecipient that cannot produce payroll for match put subrecipient single-audit exception list in play. Budget justification writer should say what subrecipient single-audit exception list proves.

Decision

Budget justification writer in a cabinet agency defending a budget increase must choose Pay or continue / Recoup / Deny / Hold using subrecipient single-audit exception list after a subrecipient that cannot produce payroll for match.

Hypotheses to test

• Authorize Pay or continue now; subrecipient single-audit exception list already has the discriminator after a subrecipient that cannot produce payroll for match.
• Keep Recoup in force until subrecipient single-audit exception list is completed after a subrecipient that cannot produce payroll for match for budget justification writer.
• Treat subrecipient single-audit exception list as Deny because both readings appear after a subrecipient that cannot produce payroll for match.
• Refuse a Government close: budget justification writer does not have the page a grant special condition turns on in subrecipient single-audit exception list.

Analysis required

• Trace the audit trail budget justification writer would produce for oversight.
• Map eligibility, appropriation, and program rules in subrecipient single-audit exception list after a subrecipient that cannot produce payroll for match.
• Name the statutory hook that subrecipient single-audit exception list does or does not support.
• For this Government Budget and Performance file, read subrecipient single-audit exception list against a subrecipient that cannot produce payroll for match and write the one fact that would move a grant special condition for budget justification writer.

Recommendation

Choose Pay or continue / Recoup / Deny / Hold on this Government / Budget and Performance packet (subrecipient single-audit exception list after a subrecipient that cannot produce payroll for match). If subrecipient single-audit exception list cannot force a Government label under Budget and Performance, stop. If subrecipient single-audit exception list after a subrecipient that cannot produce payroll for match cannot support Pay or continue versus Recoup on this Government Budget and Performance close, budget justification writer must do not pay, recoup, or deny beyond the eligibility record.
