(a) Except as provided in paragraph
(b) of this section, Head Start grantees
funded or refunded after June 7, 1993,
must comply with these requirements
by such times in their grant cycles as
new groups of children begin receiving
services. This does not preclude grantees
from voluntarily coming into compliance
with these regulations prior to
the effective date.(b) With respect to the requirements of §
1306.32(b)(2), grantees that are currently operating classes in double session
center-based options for less than three and a half hours per day, but for at
least three hours per day, may continue to do so until September 1, 1995, at
which time they must comply with the three and one-half hour minimum class
time requirement.
