§ 2695. General powers of board; contracts—Article V
The board shall have the power to: (1) collect, correlate, and evaluate data in the
fields of its interest under this compact; to publish reports, bulletins and other
documents making available the results of its research; and, in its discretion, to
charge fees for said reports, bulletins and documents; (2) enter into such contractual
agreements or arrangements with any of the compacting states or agencies thereof and
with educational institutions and agencies as may be required in the judgment of the
board to provide adequate services and facilities in educational fields covered by
this compact; provided, that it shall be the policy of the board in the negotiation
of its agreements to serve increased numbers of students from the compacting states
through arrangements with then existing institutions, whenever in the judgment of
the board adequate service can be so secured in the New England region. Each of the
compacting states shall contribute funds to carry out the contracts of the board on
the basis of the number of students from such state for whom the board may contract.
Contributions shall be at the rate determined by the board in each educational field.
Except in those instances where the board by specific action allocates funds available
to it under Article VII hereof, the board’s authority to enter into such contracts
shall be only upon appropriation of funds by the compacting states. Any contract
entered into shall be in accordance with rules and regulations promulgated by the
board and in accordance with the laws of the compacting states.
