AI Summary
This bill amends Tennessee law regarding child support by removing the requirement for the Department of Human Services (the state agency responsible for child support) to establish and maintain a statewide toll-free telephone line specifically for child support inquiries and complaints, and also eliminates the mandate for the department to set up satellite offices for its central child support collection and disbursement unit. The bill essentially streamlines these specific customer service requirements for child support, allowing the department more flexibility in how it handles citizen inquiries and complaints related to child support payments.
