    Sec. 50. State grant-making agency responsibilities.

    (a) The specific requirements and responsibilities of State grant-making agencies and non-federal entities are set forth in this Act. State agencies making State awards to non-federal entities must adopt by rule the language in 2 CFR 200, Subpart C through Subpart F unless different provisions are required by law.

    (b) Each State grant-making agency shall appoint a Chief Accountability Officer who shall serve as a liaison to the Grant Accountability and Transparency Unit and who shall be responsible for the State agency's implementation of and compliance with the rules.

    (c) In order to effectively measure the performance of its recipients and subrecipients, each State grant-making agency shall:

        (1) require its recipients and subrecipients to

    relate financial data to performance accomplishments of the award and, when applicable, must require recipients and subrecipients to provide cost information to demonstrate cost-effective practices. The recipient's and subrecipient's performance should be measured in a way that will help the State agency to improve program outcomes, share lessons learned, and spread the adoption of promising practices; and

        (2) provide recipients and subrecipients with clear

    performance goals, indicators, and milestones and must establish performance reporting frequency and content to not only allow the State agency to understand the recipient's progress, but also to facilitate identification of promising practices among recipients and subrecipients and build the evidence upon which the State agency's program and performance decisions are made.

    (d) The Governor's Office of Management and Budget shall provide such advice and technical assistance to the State grant-making agencies as is necessary or indicated in order to ensure compliance with this Act.
