The document outlines the establishment of a Private Sector Task Force to conduct a management study of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The Secretary of the Interior is instructed to appoint a chairman who is not a US employee, and the Task Force will hire private sector specialists. $300,000 is authorized for this purpose. Amendments include requiring approval of the chairman by the Senate Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, prohibiting Task Force members from being US employees, and mandating the Task Force to provide Congress with a final report. Senator Abourezk plans to bring the bill to the floor for approval. Senator Bartlett proposes increasing the Task Force membership to 21, with 11 Indian members.
