The Secretary can make a state repay trauma grant money that was not spent the way the state agreed to spend it. If the state does not repay, the Secretary can subtract the amount from future payments. The state must get a chance for a hearing before repayment is required.
(a) Repayment of payments
(1) The Secretary* may require a State* to repay money it received under section 300d–11(a) if the Secretary decides the State did not spend it the way its agreements required.
(2) If the State does not repay as required, the Secretary may instead subtract the repayment amount from future payments due to the State under section 300d–11(a).
(b) Opportunity for hearing
Before requiring a State to repay money, the Secretary must give the State a chance for a hearing.
The Secretary* may, in accordance with subsection (b), require a State* to repay any payments received by the State pursuant to section 300d–11(a) of this title that the Secretary determines were not expended by the State in accordance with the agreements required to be made by the State as a condition of the receipt of payments under such section.
If a State fails to make a repayment required in paragraph (1), the Secretary may offset the amount of the repayment against any amount due to be paid to the State under section 300d–11(a) of this title.
Before requiring repayment of payments under subsection (a)(1), the Secretary shall provide to the State an opportunity for a hearing.
