TITLE 20—EDUCATION
§ 7705
complaints involving the same tribe or local
educational agency.
(8) Withholding
If the local educational agency rejects the
determination of the Secretary, or if the rem-
edy required is not undertaken within the
time established and the Secretary determines
that an extension of the time established will
not effectively encourage the remedy required,
the Secretary shall withhold payment of all
moneys to which such local agency is eligible
under section 7703 of this title until such time
as the remedy required is undertaken, except
where the complaining tribe or its designee
formally requests that such funds be released
to the local educational agency, except that
the Secretary may not withhold such moneys
during the course of the school year if the Sec-
retary
determines
that
such
withholding
would substantially disrupt the educational
programs of the local educational agency.
(9) Rejection of determination
If the local educational agency rejects the
determination of the Secretary and a tribe ex-
ercises the option under section 1101(d) of the
Education Amendments of 1978, to have edu-
cation services provided either directly by the
Bureau of Indian Education or by contract
with the Bureau of Indian Education, any In-
dian students affiliated with that tribe who
wish to remain in attendance at the local edu-
cational agency against whom the complaint
which led to the tribal action under such sub-
section (d) was lodged may be counted with re-
spect to that local educational agency for the
purpose of receiving funds under section 7703
of this title. In such event, funds under such
section shall not be withheld pursuant to para-
graph (8) and no further complaints with re-
spect to such students may be
