the Social Security Act provides for a system of reporting on the 
administration of this program. Furthermore, the Code of Federal 
Regulations 45 Public Welfare, section 205.60 requires that ``The State

of the programs including records regarding applications, determination 
of eligibility, * * * individual records are kept which contain 
pertinent facts about each applicant and recipient and include 
information as to the date of application and date and basis of its

compile information on Emergency Assistance cases, General Assistance 
cases and recipients, the number of cases and individuals required to 
participate in the JOBS program, the number of children receiving 
Transitional Child Care, the number of AFDC recipients under JOBS 
sanctions, and the number of never-married minor families and their
