House Bill 362, also known as Senate Bill 358, amends Tennessee Code Annotated to mandate a study by the Tennessee Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations (TACIR) regarding the economic impact of the cosmetology and barbering professions in the state. The study will focus on the revenue generated from these services and the number of jobs created within the industry. TACIR is authorized to request information from the Department of Commerce and Insurance and other relevant governmental entities, which are required to comply with these requests. The study will utilize TACIR's existing resources.

Upon completion of the study, TACIR is required to report its findings and recommendations, including any proposed legislation, to the chairs of the Senate Commerce and Labor Committee and the House Committee overseeing cosmetology and barbering. A copy of the report will also be provided to the legislative librarian, and it may be delivered electronically. The act will take effect upon becoming law, emphasizing its importance for public welfare.
