They also request for a detailed plan for the new department's function and the role of Indian education within it, as well as safeguards to ensure adequate funding for Indian education programs."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_003_2_31_7_0027.jpg "Opposition to Transfer of Indian Education Programs: A Call for Action")
