House Bill 750 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 49-6-809(h), regarding the reporting requirements for law enforcement agencies that provide armed security officers in schools. The bill mandates that the chief law enforcement officer of each agency with jurisdiction over a school utilizing armed security submit an annual report to various state officials, including the governor and education committee chairs, by September 1 each year. This report must detail any security deficiencies identified and provide recommendations for improvements. Additionally, if multiple law enforcement agencies are involved in a single county, they are required to submit a consolidated report.

The bill aims to enhance school security by ensuring that law enforcement agencies systematically evaluate and report on the effectiveness of armed security measures in schools. By consolidating reports from multiple agencies, the legislation seeks to streamline communication and improve the overall assessment of school security across jurisdictions. The act is set to take effect upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of public welfare in its implementation.
