Sec. 743. Membership roll; preparation and initial publication;
appeal from inclusion or omission from roll; finality of
determination; final publication
Each tribe shall have a period of six months from September 1, 1954,
in which to prepare and submit to the Secretary a proposed roll of the
members of the tribe living on September 1, 1954, which shall be
published in the Federal Register. If a tribe fails to submit such roll
within the time specified in this section, the Secretary shall prepare a
proposed role \1\ for the tribe, which shall be published in the Federal
Register. Any person claiming membership rights in the tribe or an
interest in its assets, or a representative of the Secretary on behalf
of any such person, may, within sixty days from the date of publication
of the proposed roll, file an appeal with the Secretary contesting the
inclusion or omission of the name of any person on or from such roll.
The Secretary shall review such appeals and his decisions thereon shall
be final and conclusive. After disposition of all such appeals by the
Secretary, the roll of the tribe shall be published in the Federal
Register, and such roll shall be final for the purposes of this
subchapter.
