(a primary body for non-government grant makers). Background A key research question was the suitability of the company model for not-for-profit organizations. While the views of business have been canvassed before any corporate law reforms have been implemented, the views of not-for-profits have been overlooked. To obtain these views, a detailed survey was sent to all of the 9,817 companies limited by guarantee on the public register maintained by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) as at March 1, 2002 (virtually all of which are not-for-profits). Over 1,700 completed replies were received. The data collected gives, for the first time, a national snapshot of those not-for-profits that are registered as companies limited by guarantee. The survey sought a wide range of information about: the procedures and structures of the board; and

Extractions: DOE Modifies Special Education Regulations Parental consent, IEP team accord and timely documents are some areas that require compliance. By Cherie L. Maxwell, Esq. ONCE AGAIN THE DEPARTMENT OF Education has revisited and revised Title 6A:14 of the New Jersey Administrative Code dealing with special education. Some of the changes may have a far-reaching impact on districts and must be carefully reviewed to assure prompt compliance. Parental Consent to Initial IEP One of the most significant changes in the special education code is reflected in an August 21, 2001 memorandum issued by Barbara Gantwerk, director of the Department of Educations Office of Special Education Programs.1 In response to a review by the U.S. Department of Education, New Jersey has been directed to modify the code that addresses parental consent during initial evaluation procedures.2 While the long-standing rule in New Jersey has been that a district may (and should) use due process or mediation procedures when a parent refuses consent for an initial evaluation and/or refuses initial implementation of an individualized education program, the federal Department of Education has interpreted the federal regulations to mean that a board of education may not use due process procedures in these cases. This change is effective immediately. This means that a board of education no longer has the ability to file a due process petition to seek implementation of an initial IEP if the parent withholds consent. The practical effect of this modification is that a district can evaluate, determine eligibility and recommend a program, but unless the parent agrees, it can do nothing to implement the IEP program and services for the student. Clearly, this position runs counter to the historic position of the New Jersey Department of Education, which has encouraged districts efforts to assure that each student with a disability receives appropriate services.

Extractions: Indian/Alaska Native Tribes and Indian Organizations The President's Memorandum of April 29, 1994, titled, "Government-to-Government Relationship with Native American Tribal Governments" that was sent to the heads of executive departments and agencies reaffirmed the unique relationship between the U.S. Government and Native American Tribal Governments as stated in the Constitution, treaties, statutes and court decisions and directed each executive department and agency to consult with tribal governments prior to taking actions that affect them. The Domestic Policy Council (DPC) Working Group on Indian Affairs, chaired by Secretary Babbitt, has requested that each Department develop its own operational definition of "consultation" with Indian tribes to meet the requirements of both the Indian Self-Determination and Educational Assistance Act, Public Law 93-638, and the President's Memorandum. I know all of you share with me a commitment to ensure that the intent and spirit of the President's Memorandum is fully embraced in the Consultation process that we are implementing.

Extractions: Federal Regulatory Update: Proposed Rule Special Uses Requiring Authorization on Forest Service Land may affect access to public lands from ARRA Americans for Responsible Recreational Access (ARRA) has issued an alert to a proposed rule, recently released by the Forest Service, that outlines changes in the regulations for special uses of Forest Service lands that, if enacted, may affect access to public lands. Why the Proposed Rule? On January 22, the Forest Service published a proposed rule outlining what special uses of Forest Service land require previous authorization. This proposed rule is primarily meant to close a loophole that exists in the current regulations. At this time, regulations state that a special use authorization is not required for use of the National Forest System road and trails. The Forest Service is concerned that damage is occurring to these roads and trails and that authorization can control use and therefore control damage.
