# §513.100. Purpose.

- (a) Executive Order (E.O.) 12549 provides that, to the extent permitted by law, Executive departments and agencies shall participate in a governmentwide system for nonprocurement debarment and suspension. A person who is debarred or suspended shall be excluded from Federal financial and nonfinancial assistance and benefits under Federal programs and activities. Debarment or suspension of a participant in a program by one agency shall have governmentwide effect.
- (b) These regulations implement [section 3](/cfr/22/3.md) of E.O. 12549 and the guidelines promulgated by the Office of Management and Budget under [section 6](/cfr/22/6.md) of the E.O. by:
  - (1) Prescribing the programs and activities that are covered by the governmentwide system;
  - (2) Prescribing the governmentwide criteria and governmentwide minimum due process procedures that each agency shall use;
  - (3) Providing for the listing of debarred and suspended participants, participants declared ineligible (see definition of “ineligible” in [§ 513.105](/cfr/22/513.105.md)), and participants who have voluntarily excluded themselves from participation in covered transactions;
  - (4) Setting forth the consequences of a debarment, suspension, determination of ineligibility, or voluntary exclusion; and
  - (5) Offering such other guidance as necessary for the effective implementation and administration of the governmentwide system.
- (c) These regulations also implement Executive Order 12689 ([3 CFR](/cfr/3.md), 1989 Comp., p. 235) and [31 U.S.C. 6101](/usc/31/6101.md) note (Public Law 103-355, sec. [2455](/cfr/22/2455.md), [108](/cfr/22/108.md) Stat. 3327) by—
  - (1) Providing for the inclusion in the List of Parties Excluded from Federal Procurement and Nonprocurement Programs all persons proposed for debarment, debarred or suspended under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, [48 CFR Part 9](/cfr/48/part9.md), [subpart 9.4](/cfr/22/subpart9.4.md); persons against which governmentwide exclusions have been entered under this part; and persons determined to be ineligible; and
  - (2) Setting forth the consequences of a debarment, suspension, determination of ineligibility, or voluntary exclusion.
- (d) Although these regulations cover the listing of ineligible participants and the effect of such listing, they do not prescribe policies and procedures governing declarations of ineligibility.
