# §1132.310. National policy requirements.

- (a) **Requirement.** A DoD Component's general terms and conditions must require recipients to include provisions in their contracts that require the contractors to comply with applicable national policy requirements.
- (b) **Award terms and conditions—**
  - (1) **General.** To implement the requirement in [paragraph (a)](#a) of this section, a DoD Component's general terms and conditions must use the wording that appendix C to this part provides for Section B of PROC Article III.
  - (2) **Exceptions.**
    - (i) The Wage Rate Requirements (Construction) statute (40 U.S.C. [3141-44](/usc/40/3141-44.md), [3146](/usc/40/3146.md), and [3147](/usc/40/3147.md)) does not apply to a program carried out through grants or cooperative agreements unless another statute makes it apply to that program. A DoD Component's general terms and conditions therefore may not include the provision that appendix C to this part includes as paragraph B.2 of PROC Article III unless another statute makes the Wage Rate Requirements statute apply to the program using those general terms and conditions.
    - (ii) If a DoD Component determines that any of the other national policy requirements in Section B will not apply to any of the awards subject to its general terms and conditions, the DoD Component may reserve the paragraphs of Section B addressing those requirements. Should a future need arise to include the requirements in a given award, the DoD Component may include them as award-specific terms and conditions.
