PART 90_VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN--Table of Contents

 

        Subpart C_Indian Tribal Governments Discretionary Program

 

Sec. 90.50  Indian tribal governments discretionary program.





    (a) Indian tribal governments are eligible to receive assistance as 

part of the State program pursuant to subpart B of this part. In 

addition, Indian tribal governments may apply directly to the Office of 

Justice Programs for discretionary grants under this subpart, based on 

section 2002(b)(1).

    (b) Indian tribal governments under the Violence Against Women Act 

do not need to have law enforcement authority. Thus, the requirements 

applicable to State formula grants under subpart B that at least 25% of 

the total grant award be allocated to law enforcement and 25% to 

prosecution, are not applicable to Indian tribal governments which do 

not have law enforcement authority.
