AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee's inmate financial obligations by increasing the daily rates for certain fees or charges. Specifically, the bill modifies Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 41-8-106, which appears to relate to inmate costs or assessments. The first section changes the daily rate from $3.00 to $6.00 for one category of charges, and the second section increases another category's daily rate from $6.00 to $12.00. While the exact nature of these charges is not specified in the bill text, they likely relate to inmate-related expenses such as room and board, work program fees, or other administrative costs. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, giving state agencies time to prepare for the increased rates. The bill is part of a broader legislative effort to adjust financial provisions related to inmates in Tennessee's legal code.
