Senate Bill 82 amends the Tennessee Code Annotated by making specific changes to the standards committee within the Department of Human Services. The bill deletes subdivision (36) from Section 4-29-246(a), which likely pertains to the composition or responsibilities of the standards committee. Additionally, it introduces a new subdivision in Section 4-29-252(a) that explicitly recognizes the standards committee created by Section 71-3-511.

The bill aims to clarify the structure and function of the standards committee, ensuring that it is properly documented within the legal framework of the state. The changes are intended to enhance the governance of the Department of Human Services and will take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of public welfare in the legislative process.
