The act provides for the award of fees and other expenses to eligible individuals and entities who are parties to certain administrative proceedings initiated by Commonwealth agencies.

This subchapter describes how to apply for awards and the procedures for initiating payment. The guidelines and standard procedures contained in this subchapter are to apply unless specifically modified by an agency in accordance with § 2.9 (relating to agency rules).

This section citied in 4 Pa. Code § 2.11 (relating to statements of policy).
