House Bill 1328, also known as Senate Bill 1314, seeks to amend Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 40-38-507, which pertains to the criminal proceedings notification system. The bill removes the phrase "as a pilot program" from subsection (a), indicating a shift from a temporary or trial-based approach to a more permanent implementation of the notification system. Additionally, subsection (d) of the same section is entirely deleted, which may suggest a simplification or restructuring of the existing legal framework surrounding this notification system.
The bill is designed to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the criminal proceedings notification system in Tennessee. It is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the urgency and importance of the changes being made for the public welfare.
