Senate Bill 73 amends Tennessee Code Annotated by removing subdivision (26) from Section 4-29-246(a) and introducing a new section, 4-29-254, which establishes a termination date for certain governmental entities. Specifically, the Interstate Compact on Detainers, as created by Section 40-31-101, is set to terminate on June 30, 2033. Additionally, any department, commission, board, agency, or council of state government created during the calendar year 2031 will also terminate on the same date.
The bill allows for the possibility of continuation, reestablishment, or restructuring of any governmental entity that has been terminated under this new section. The act is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the urgency of the changes for public welfare.
