Senate Bill 1644, also known as House Bill 2365, amends Tennessee Code Annotated regarding the Tennessee Council on Autism Spectrum Disorder. The bill specifically modifies Section 4-3-2711 by deleting the existing language in subsection (g) and replacing it with new provisions. The updated language states that council members will serve without compensation but will be eligible for reimbursement of travel expenses incurred while attending council meetings. This reimbursement must adhere to the comprehensive travel regulations established by the Department of Finance and Administration and approved by the Attorney General and Reporter.

The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2024, emphasizing the importance of ensuring that council members can participate in meetings without financial burden while maintaining compliance with state travel regulations.
