House Bill 961, also known as Senate Bill 929, proposes an amendment to Tennessee Code Annotated regarding the legislative committees of the House of Representatives. Specifically, it modifies Section 1-1-108(a) by deleting the phrase "civil justice committee of the house of representatives" and replacing it with "committee of the house of representatives with jurisdiction over subject matters pertaining to the code commission." This change aims to clarify the responsibilities of the relevant committee in relation to the code commission.

The bill is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the urgency of the amendment for the public welfare. This legislative adjustment reflects a shift in focus for the committee's jurisdiction, aligning it more closely with the functions of the code commission.
