The document says “shall”Who acts: Director of the Bureau of Indian AffairsHow: statuteSec. 4 in the PDF
What the document says
“The Director shall establish within the Division of Real Estate Services of the Bureau the position of Realty Ombudsman, who shall report directly to the Secretary of the Interior.”
The Director must create the position inside the Bureau's Division of Real Estate Services. The holder reports directly to the Secretary of the Interior rather than through the Bureau.
What the document actually says
“The Director shall establish within the Division of Real Estate Services of the Bureau the position of Realty Ombudsman, who shall report directly to the Secretary of the Interior.”
That sentence, in plain words
The head of the BIA must make a new job. It is called the Realty Ombudsman.
What this is about
The job sits in the part of the BIA that handles land. But its boss is the head of the Interior Department.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
