Chapter 6 Delinquent debt Collection 6-1 Overview Agencies should have fair but aggressive programs to recover Delinquent debt , including defaulted guaranteed loans acquired by the Federal Government.

The strategy should take into account that debts within the jurisdiction of the bankruptcy courts are subject to the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code (see page 6-57).
