on the following criteria:

•  Were the terms of the
October 25, 1784 Haldimand
Proclamation and other
treaties fulfilled and honoured?

•  Was the alienation of
portions of the Six
Nations' tract
undertaken lawfully?

•  Were the terms and conditions of the alienations fulfilled?

•  Were the financial assets derived from the land alienations properly accounted for and maximized to benefit the Six Nations of the Grand River Indians?
