Debarment Affirmation Clause Samples
A Debarment Affirmation clause requires a party to confirm that neither it nor its key personnel are currently debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from participating in certain activities, typically government contracts or federally funded programs. In practice, this means the party must verify and affirm its eligibility status before entering into the agreement, often by checking relevant government exclusion lists. The core function of this clause is to ensure that only qualified and eligible entities participate in the contract, thereby protecting the other party from legal or regulatory risks associated with engaging debarred or ineligible partners.
