What the agency says

This rule removes HUD's obsolete regulations under the Rental and Cooperative Housing for Lower Income Families Program under section 236 of the National Housing Act ("Section 236"), as amended. HUD has determined that the provisions regulating Section 236 insured projects and Section 236 Rental Assistance Payment ("RAP") projects are obsolete and unnecessary because there are no remaining properties or projects subject to these regulations, and no new agreements are being established under these programs.
