TITLE 25—INDIANS
§ 2
promulgated by the Secretary of the Interior
pursuant to law. Subject to the supervision and
direction of the Secretary, the Commissioner is
authorized to delegate, in like manner, any pow-
ers and duties so delegated to him by the Sec-
retary, or vested in him by law, to the assistant
commissioners, or the officer in charge of any
branch, division, office, or agency of the Bureau
of Indian Affairs, insofar as such powers and du-
ties relate to action in individual cases arising
under general regulations promulgated by the
Secretary of the Interior or the Commissioner of
Indian Affairs pursuant to law. Such delegated
powers shall be exercised subject to appeal to
the Secretary, under regulations to be pre-
scribed by him, or, as from time to time deter-
mined by him, to the Deputy Secretary or to an
Assistant Secretary of the Department of the In-
terior, or to the Commissioner of Indian Affairs.
The Secretary or the Commissioner, as the case
may be, may at any time revoke the whole or
any part of a delegation made pursuant to this
section, but no such revocation shall be given
retroactive effect. Nothing in this section shall
be deemed to abrogate or curtail any authority
to make delegations conferred by any other pro-
vision of law, nor shall anything in this section
be deemed to convey authority to delegate any
power to issue regulations.
