It attempts to clarify inconsistencies in implementing Public Law 102-477. Over the past four years, tribes have attempted to integrate both programs into their 477 plans. They have received at best, inconsistent responses from the BIA. On several occasions the Bureau approved the integration, and other times integration was rejected. The Bureau confirmed this confusion at a May 13, 1997 Indian Affairs Committee hearing when it submitted conflicting testimony regarding its approval of including the JOM program into tribal plans. Section 3(b) makes clear that ``at the option of a tribe'' funds under both the General Assistance and Johnson O'Malley programs may be integrated into tribal 477 plans.
