Bill > SB0080

This bill extends the authorization for the private probation services council in Tennessee by modifying two sections of the state's legal code. Specifically, the bill removes a previous reference to the private probation services council from Section 4-29-246(a), and then adds the council as a new subdivision in Section 4-29-252(a), effectively continuing the council's existence. The bill appears to be a standard sunset extension mechanism, which allows a governmental body or advisory council to continue operating beyond its original expiration date. In this case, the bill ensures that the private probation services council, which likely provides oversight or guidance for private probation service providers in Tennessee, will remain active. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law, which means it will provide continuity for the council's operations without interruption. While the government-provided summary indicates the council is extended until June 30, 2031, the XML text does not explicitly mention this date.
