Sec. 3673. Cooperation

    (a) The Secretary and each State approving agency shall take 
cognizance of the fact that definite duties, functions, and 
responsibilities are conferred upon the Secretary and each State 
approving agency under the educational programs established under this 
chapter and chapters 34 and 35 of this title. To assure that such 
programs are effectively and efficiently administered, the cooperation 
of the Secretary and the State approving agencies is essential. It is 
necessary to establish an exchange of information pertaining to 
activities of educational institutions, and particular attention should 
be given to the enforcement of approval standards, enforcement of 
enrollment restrictions, and fraudulent and other criminal activities on 
the part of persons connected with educational institutions in which 
eligible persons or veterans are enrolled under this chapter and 
chapters 34 and 35 of this title.
    (b) The Secretary will furnish the State approving agencies with 
copies of such Department of Veterans Affairs informational material as 
may aid them in carrying out chapters 34 and 35 of this title.
