The Commission may properly act as a host agency in this context since this would not contra- vene the provisions of 31 U.S.C. § 1342, which prohibits federal agencies from accepting voluntary services from private citizens in the absence of statutory authority. DECISION The issue presented in this matter is whether the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) may serve as a host agency in using enrollees of the Senior Community Service Employment Program for part-time clerical work, notwith- standing that by law federal agencies are generally pro- hibited from accepting voluntary services. T/ We conclude that this general prohibition does not apply to the enrollees in the program at issue, so that EEOC may properly accept their services for part-time clerical work. BACKGROUND The Senior Community Service Employment Program is admin- istered by the American Association of Retired Persons, a nongovernmental organization, under a federal grant and an agreement with the Secretary of Labor, as authorized by subch pter IX of Chapter 35, title 42 of the United States Code,/42 U.S.C. §§ 305 t-3056f. l/ Mr. William Bartlett, Acting Director, Personnel Manage- ment Services, EEOC, reqiested our decision in this matter.
