    The FSIN Chiefs-in-Assembly established the First Nations Treaty Rights Protection Fund (FNTRPF) in 1983 pursuant to FSIN Resolution #007 and again in Resolution #597. The established objective of FNTRPF is the protection, promotion and enhancement of Treaty and Inherent Rights of all First Nation peoples in Saskatchewan.<\/p>\n

    As is the case with the First Nation distributions, the directed allocation uses the population count provided by each First Nation to the FSIN Clerk of the Assembly.\u00a0 The FNT determines the FNTRPF allocation based on five dollars per capita multiplied by the sum of all the First Nation population counts reported.<\/p>\n

This Resolution also allows other Tribal\/Grand Councils and Independent Bands to assume control of their proportional share of FNTRPF funds should they so choose.<\/p>\n
