Current through September 24, 2024
Suspension is a serious action to be imposed only when there exists adequate evidence of one or more of the causes set out in Rule 1.5 "Causes For Debarment", and immediate action is necessary to protect the public interest. For purposes of this agency, suspension is an action taken by MDA in accordance with the following regulations that immediately excludes a subgrantee and/or its agent, agents, and/or anyone/any entity from participating in transactions for a temporary period, pending investigation and such legal action, debarment, or other proceedings as may ensue.
A. In assessing the adequacy of the evidence, the agency should consider how much information is available, how credible it is given the circumstances, whether or not important allegations are corroborated, and what inferences can reasonably be drawn as a result. This assessment should include an examination of basic documents such as grants, cooperative agreements, loan authorizations and contracts.
