Section 2.3 - Statements of policy(a) For the purposes of providing guidance to the general public and to program applicants and participants and of interpreting law and regulations, the Department issues statements of policy. The statements of policy are codified in this title.(b) Statements of policy are issued under the authority of the Secretary or a deputy secretary. A program applicant or participant may rely on a statement of policy only insofar as the statement binds the Department to follow a stated course of action. Periodically, the Department may revise prospectively a statement of policy, and program applicants and participants are cautioned to determine whether a statement of policy relied upon is current.
