performance data as required by the Carl D. Perkins Career and 
Technical Education Act of 2006 (Perkins IV). Perkins IV requires the 
Secretary to provide the appropriate committees of Congress copies of 
annual reports received by the Department from each eligible agency 
that receives funds under the Act. The Office of Vocational Adult 
Education (OVAE) will determine each State's compliance with basic 
provisions of Perkins IV and the Education Department General 
Administrative Regulations [Annual Performance Report] and Part 80.41 
[Financial Status Report]). OVAE will review performance data to 
determine whether, and to what extent, each State has met its State 
adjusted levels of performance for the core indicators described in 
section 113(b)(4) of Perkins IV.
