This bill adds new responsibilities to the Secretary of Tribal Relations, requiring annual reports to the State-Tribal Relations Committee and attendance at all of that committee's official meetings. The bill also creates a new advisory council made up of representatives from South Dakota's nine federally recognized tribes plus one representative from an urban community, with meetings required at least four times per year.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
