Bill Summary

As enacted, extends the board of alcohol and drug abuse counselors to June 30, 2029. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 68, Chapter 24.

AI Summary

This bill extends the existence of the board of alcohol and drug abuse counselors in Tennessee until June 30, 2029, by making technical amendments to two sections of Tennessee state law. Specifically, the bill removes an existing subdivision (4) from Section 4-29-246(a) and adds a new reference to the board of alcohol and drug abuse counselors to Section 4-29-250(a), which likely relates to the administrative structure and oversight of state boards. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law, with the stated justification that the public welfare requires it. While the changes may seem minor, they are important for ensuring the continued legal authorization and functioning of the board that oversees professional standards and licensing for alcohol and drug abuse counselors in Tennessee.
