Bill > HB1268

This bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 38-6-207, to modify the timing and specificity of an annual written report concerning narcotics investigations. Specifically, the bill requires that the annual report from the bureau and the assistant director of the narcotics investigation division must be submitted by February 15 of each year, instead of the previous more general "each year" language. Additionally, the bill updates the report's recipient from the "criminal justice committee of the house of representatives" to the "committee of the house of representatives with jurisdiction over criminal justice matters", which provides a slightly more precise description of the receiving committee. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law, with the legislative body asserting that the public welfare requires its prompt implementation. While the changes appear relatively minor, they provide more precise timing and specificity for an important annual reporting requirement related to narcotics investigations in Tennessee.
