AI Summary
This bill extends the lifespan of the Post-Conviction Defender Oversight Commission, a body responsible for overseeing post-conviction defenders, until June 30, 2032, by amending Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) sections related to government agency oversight and post-conviction procedures. Specifically, it removes a reference to the commission from a list of agencies subject to a sunset review in TCA 4-29-247(a) and adds the commission to a list of entities that are not subject to this review in TCA 4-29-253(a), effectively ensuring its continued operation beyond its previously scheduled expiration.
