Senate Bill 1541 and House Bill 1598 propose amendments to the Tennessee Code Annotated concerning the state board for licensing contractors. Specifically, the bill deletes subdivision (47) from Section 4-29-247(a) and adds a new subdivision to Section 4-29-251(a) that identifies the state board for licensing contractors, which is established by Section 62-6-104.
The bill aims to streamline the legal framework surrounding contractor licensing in Tennessee by removing outdated provisions and clarifying the existence of the state board responsible for this function. The act will take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of the changes for public welfare.
